I just moved from Va back to Tx.  I am still fairly new to the sport but like to think I have done enough homework to call it a decent start.

ANYWAY, I am hoping that someone could give me some info on the lake.  Even on TX bassin vs VA/Northeast.  I will take any help I can get.

Primarily I am hoping that someone could point me to a good shore-fishing spot or two, as I don't yet have a boat.  Maybe recommend some colors/tactics/lures.  I haven't fished but 1 body of water for most of my life and it was a reservoir-filled valley back in VA so most of what I have applied may not fly out here too well.

I am hoping to pick up a Jon boat soon so I'd also appreciate if someone could suggest a location or two.  I am not looking for specifics, just general info to get me started.

I appreciate the help guys...

Go to the Dalrock Ramp just east of the Bass Pro Shop store. You can fish on the right. After that move to the left of the ramp until you get to the Interstate. You will then have several miles of chunk rock to fish. Good fishing to, just count the number of bass boats working up and down it.

Great, will do.  Hopefully I can get thru traffic in time to get an hour or so in tonight... Doubtful though?

Thanks for the help.  I'll let you know how it pans out.

My family lives in Lakeside Village in Rockwall right on the lake. I'm up there a lot. If you want to go just let me know.

Also... where/what brand of map should I buy if I want the very best for this lake?  If I need several, let me know...

Sounds good Fish4.  We'll get up and do some fishin then. Just let me know next time u r around.

Granted the weather has not been great,  but I've thrown jigs and t-rigs along the chunk rock, draggin the bottom, etc.  Any advice on colors or presentations?  Again, I have learned to bass in Virginia reservoirs so texas lakes, structure, bassin is all new to me.  Would appreciate any help I can get, really hoping to put a biggun on my new Falcon rod.
