hidden lake

[MontanaTransplant]

I see on fishbrain people claiming catches at hidden lake. I have a question though: where is hidden lake, is it public and how do I get there?

I was just there Monday. Didn't have any luck using artificial lures

Sounds good. Thanks for the update!

Went to Earl Scott this morning from about 9-1030, no action. One big bass kept hitting the top of the water but no luck. Tried frogs, turtles, worms, swim baits, and rooster tails, no luck on any of em!

Went to earl Scott about 2 weeks ago, caught one small bass on the 1st cast. Then after a couple hours ended up reeling in 2 decent sized cats back to back. That was all for te day Tho.

Hidden lake is trash. If you like to catch 1.5lb bass or smaller, it's the pond for you

When yall say hidden lake, are yall twlking about the one off of nacogdoches

 

[clintbeastwood]

Right next to the HEB off of 1604 and Bandera. Don't waste your time

@clintbeastwood It's kind of hard to give up on a place before you have even fished there...

haha just speaking from over a year of experience fishing it. 4 lbs was the biggest I have pulled or have ever seen pulled from those waters. There may be a monster lurking, who knows.

 

[Stephen Bratz]

@clintbeastwood 4 lbs isn't a bad fish! But I understand that what you are saying is that the good fish are scarce there. I agree, who knows!

Definitely not a bad fish at all. You just have a few people out there that ruined the spot by constantly throwing a cast net. If you can get on lackland, I recommend that you fish leon creek. Really good sized bass and gar if you're into that. I've seen 12+lb cat just relaxing on the bank

 

[Stephen Bratz]

I could get on lackland if I took my father fishing haha! Thanks for the advice!

 

[MJ21]

I'm gonna fish Lackland next week when my guy gets out of training. Just a quick drive from my office. Gives me a chance to lean how to bass fish.

 

[Stephen Bratz]

@MJ21 Good luck man, let me know how it goes.

 

[MJ21]

Give u an update when I finally get out there.

 

[clinton vallette]

Sorry guys I've been out for a while without any fishing. What's going on with the camp, fishing trip, thanks

Earl Scott pond is literally off of babcock near bamberger park. It's the park with the playground across from the school. All you do is follow the running trail and make a left where it forks. The pond is about a 1/4 mile walk. A lot of shore area to fish and a lot of big bass and mid level bass. Soft plastics work awesome. You can google map it to find it easier. And it is 100% free

Is this the body of water that the Oxbow trailhead leads to???

 

[sa1126]

Yep.

 

[Bsald]

Yep.

Sweet thanks! I just posted a thread about this place...I deer came out and hung out the whole time! I didn't know it was called Earl Scott I always called it oxbow. Thanks!!!!
