No launch.
No dock
No water.

Fred and I went up there today. The Eagle Pass Launch is very usable. Good concrete ramp, but no dock in the water. There is a fair amount of water, it's at a level normal for November. Water temp was 76-78. Fishing was not good for us. We had two confirmed bites and maybe another. We saw lots of bait with what looked like arches under it in 15-20 feet of water. No fish. I guess I can blame that on not being on the lake in over 20 years, LOL. But really, the lake is fishable if you can figure them out. It got pretty smoky. We had enough fun and quit a little before noon.
