The title says it all.

Got a buddy that lives in Flint and works a Lowe's in Tyler.  He fishes every day off but doesn't frequent this forum.

Living now in Corsicana and fish at Lake Athens.  In November will be moving to Tyler.  Just moved here from Oklahoma and discovered I moved to the wrong town.  We hate it here in Corsicana.

 Fish at least 2 times a week at Athens, getting bored there and looking to the two lakes in Tyler and palestine and the State Park.  Past on some info about the lakes there in Tyler.

Lake Palestine has everything you could want to fish for except for strippers. Lake Tyler is a good place to go at night if you want to avoid the pwc and skier crowds. I like to fish both of them at night for catfish. Tyler state park has some real monsters in it that can be caught in the winter and spring. The rest of the year your best be there is night fishing because of the water clarity and the pressure. There is also a small lake called lake Bellwood witch is entirely ringed in cattails and has some big fish in it also. 20 miles north of tyler is Lake Hawkins, a place I like to fish alot, and then about 50 miles away is Lake Fork. Tyler pretty much puts you close to good fishing in any direction you want to go.
