In the eighties Pat Cleburne Lake was an outstanding crappie lake. My wife and I fished there on weekends and always come home with limits of 12" and larger crappie.
I haven't fished it since I returned to Texas in 2007. I went there to check it out and was told by a game warden that it wasn't safe for fishing boats to be on the lake anymore. He stated there were too many of the large cigar boats running up and down the lake at speed, which had resulted in fishing boats being ran over and fishermen killed.
I haven't been back there since then. Hopefully that situation has changed by now.

Any day I'm fishing is a good day, regardless of what I catch.
