If you have Google Earth installed, I can email you an overlay of the lake I made last year. The map should be fairly accurate as I calibrated the map with respect to Google Earth. You can find lots of stuff with this overlay. You can print it out too.
If you fish the lake right now they are giving everyone a decent map of the lake. I would love to have a contour or topo map however because this lake has some amazing deep channels and dropoffs in it. It was almost just as fascinating to just watch the Lowrance yesterday as much as catching all the fish.

The road beds crossing the lake should be excellent spawning/fishing areas.
pm sent.
Herer is how to use Google Earth to generate waypoints and convert to your gps.
This is exactly how I do it since I have a garmin.
You can select the format you need in the online visualizer.

Cane Pole,
Thanks for sending me the overlay.
Do yourself a favor and look at the weather channels satelite image of the lake!!! It is from before the lake was at full pool and there are some very interesting things that show up when you zoom in and scroll around.
thanks cane pole hope to see you around pump house or catfish island.
those dark round spots , are they brush piles or holding ponds for the brood fish?
They are probably private ponds. There is a TWRA brood pond nearby, but I don't believe it is on this particular image.Quote:
