Fin & Feather Resort and Marina on Toledo Bend. It's about 5 miles down the road from me. They have some cabins and they have a nice restaurant as well as dock. Toledo Bend has been voted the best Bass lake in the country 2 years in a row and the crappie fishing is great!
Oh and I am about 150 miles from the Houston airport or North Houston.

X2 on Fin and Feather. I have a place close to Skip, but still living on North side of Houston. It's around 163 miles, and 2.5 to 3 hour drive. I go up almost every weekend. When are you coming down?

Got 42 off of the dock this weekend. Big fat ones too. Using jigs.

Might check out Somerville. They have a huge crappie dock at one of the marinas, and I'm sure there are places to stay nearby too.
Good to see you found some good ones. Congrats.
I have bud that fishes lake Houston and whacks them regularly there as well
Nice crappies
The crappie here are turned on! One guy told me on a few jigs he got from me did really well last weekend. Said that he caught 3 crappie that were 16" and all except one of his keepers were male and only the one female, another good sign that my boat should have been in a couple weeks ago, lol! Also are the big bass as last week a guy caught a 10 pound bass on 6 pound line and a crappie jig, lol! Then Friday a guy caught 2 bass over 10 pounds only hours apart.
