My father is law is under contract at a lake house on Cypress Springs. Does the Lake have good bass fishing?

Fun small lake to fish until the pleasure boaters come out. Lots of spotted bass and crappie. My family had a place in Panther Creek for 10 years.

Once it gets warm enough for jet skis and water skiers it’s like fishing in a washing machine .
There’s lots of fish in the lake .

It is a fun lake to fish and there's plenty of coves to get away from the recreation traffic.

I will say yes it has good fish in it. I have caught up to 23lb tourney sacks out of it. Springtime is a fun time to fish it and not too hard to find some fish to bite.

Dougy J, I live 3 miles from cypress springs and have fished it for 30 years. If you can come over and catch 23 lbs I'll buy you lunch, beer and gas money. PM me. That lake was ruined from bass fishing years ago.

That lake was ruined from bass fishing years ago. Think maybe the spraying of grass and addition of grass carp had a little more to do with it that them mean old bass fishermen? And 20lb sacks aren't that uncommon.

I won a tournament on it back in the 90's and caught nothing but largemouth. I had a 5 fish stringer of 3 and 4 pounders. I caught them off laydowns in the northwest arm of the lake, but it is/was loaded with spots. A buddy of mine used to fish there regularly and he says the boat houses are good for spots, just got to be able to get up under them with something.

The lake authorities and landowners don't give a flip about fishing. No fisherman or grass in the way of their jet skis or wake boats. Doug, I'll. Make the same offer if you can catch 23 lbs in 2 days.

Make the same offer if you can catch 23 lbs in 2 days. Just because you cannot catch good sacks since the grass is gone, doesn't mean others can't get lucky. At that time that was the biggest sack that had been caught at Cypress in a couple years. The guy leaning on the boat behind us has caught a lot of big fish and stringers there duting and after the grass. He was one of the best out there for a long time. Oh and I have been fishing the lake since I was around 10, so 45 years. So to say it has not been done is straight As for your challenge. I sold my boat and do not fish serious anymore. But I know some guys that may take you up if you made it a few dollars. 23lbs in 2 days should be simple. Oh and if I drive down there to fish, I am going next door to fish.
