[QUOTE="DayDay, post: 5350485, member: 9643"] I made my first visit to 1000 Acre Lake last Thursday (brutal heat). The guy I was fishing with wasn't in a hurry to get there so we arrived at about 8:30. I was surprised at the number of boat trailers in the parking lot. There were probably 15 to 20 on a Thursday; only a couple remained when we left at about 1pm. I was impressed with the lake. The water was pretty clear. We found some very active bream beds. We caught and released a countless number of bluegills and a few shellcrackers. Most of the fish were in 8 to 9.5 inch range with a couple of shellcrackers and bluegills right at 10 inches. I saw a lot of small bass everywhere in the lake. It will be interesting to see if the TWRA makes any changes to the size and limits of fish, especially bass, in the near future. It appears that the 14-18 PLR (slot limit) has been in effect for a while. I've read that the bass quality has gone down over the years; I would have thought the slot limit would have been more effective if that is the case. [/QUOTE]
