Any suggestions? Ponds or small lakes. I have a fishing kayak if needed.

It's not really "urban," but South Lake in Farmersville has a ton of bass in it. I worked in Farmersville, so I'd go in my kayak after work pretty often. Usually would catch at least 10 in a couple of hours on senkos and square bill crank baits. They're all dinks though. Average is 1-2 lbs with the occasional 4.5 lber.

The shallow, stump filled upper reaches of the major lakes (Ray Hubbard, Lewisville, lavon, grapevine, Joe pool) are great bass fishing, albeit mostly in the spring. Kayaks are ideal for that.

Google maps is your friend here. Lots of ponds and smaller lakes all over, especially in some industrial areas you can find some hidden gems loaded with fish. Just be careful with trespassing laws.

White Rock Creek just north of Forrest Lane near Medical City holds lots of fish. No Joke. Some deep holes there. Dry fly fishing there is excellent. You'll thank me.

Bachman Lake.

Probably a few three eyed fish in there.

I see people fishing in Turtle Creek and Exall Lake fairly regularly on my drive home.

If you have a kayak, Bachman probably has one of the best bass fisheries in the area. You have to find the "deeper" holes.....probably cleaner than White Rock Creek, not kidding.

Interesting. I thought the only thing you might catch at Bachman was a dead body. I will have to try that out.
