Fishing, Boating & Sailing at Lake Arrowhead, Texas

"Because Life Should Be Smooth Sailing"

A stone's throw from the Red River boundary separating Texas from Oklahoma, Lake Arrowhead is a fisherman's paradise. On one arm of the lake lies Lake Arrowhead State Park which is fitted with a rite-nice fishing pier - often so peaceful that the local birds fly right down to settle in beside the fishermen. On my last visit, a large crane was perched not ten feet from a fisherman. The experience is something that I'll never forget.

Lake Arrowhead State Park contains over 100 miles of shoreline, as well as a Prairie Dog town. They've gone a bit wild, however as they are moving their homes out into the paved road now. How they managed to dig through the pavement is beyond me.

Lake Arrowhead State Park also contains plenty of camping spots for both tent campers and RV'ers. Even a place for horses and horse lovers. The sky is generally so dark that you can see the Milky Way on most any night.

Sailboats can be seen a-plenty on Lake Arrowhead. The photo below was taken last August near sunset. And let me tell you about the sunsets here - so pretty that you won't believe your eyes.

Fishermen can expect to catch crappie, perch, bass, catfish, gar and carp. If you're planning on visiting, you may want to avoid the hottest months when tend to be July, August and early September.

Don't forget your camera - and your fishing license.
