Falcon Lake News

Bassmaster magazine has named Bullards Bar Reservoir in Yuba County one of the top 100 lakes in the U.S. for bass fishing.

It seems Bassmaster magazine is casting - aspersions, that is. Its recent ranking of "100 Best Bass Lakes" seems to have taken a detour around East Texas - naming, for example, Falcon Lake, as the nation's top lake for bass.

Police, EMSAA medics and fire fighters were there within minutes to find dozens of anonymous heroes already hard at work.

Bass anglers know that Texas is the hot spot on the fishing map these days, and a survey reported this week bolsters that view.

It's something Zapata residents say they've known all along, but now it's official.
