Lake Texoma or PK??
 
Help a fellow boater out!

Which lake is better?

Least obstructions, logs floating debri?
Better sand bars/beachable areas ? If any?
Which has a better party atmosphere...More A$$ to look at??lol
Better for over nighter/camping
Lake based resurants/marinas
And where are the best ramps to put in at?

Thanks

Biggest lake on Texas with the only all natural sand beaches, best striper fishing in the country, and one of the biggest (cash payout) poker runs in the country..... Texoma!!

If your looking for the Big party then Texoma for sure.I've got some teen age girls so we go to Possum Kingdom,however it gets pretty crazy at Pk on holiday weekends,plus the water is alot more clear than texoma.

Two very different lakes .......... I prefer PK ,,,,,, Because I run a smaller boat ...... Water conditions are usually better ....... I believe it's deeper and clearity is better as well .......... However, your list of requirements may be better suited for Texoma ........... Much Larger Lake with everything your looking for ......... :drink:

Bigb79 03-16-2007 11:30 PM

I Have been on both lakes quite a bit and Texoma is what you are looking for. It is a much bigger lake then PK, You have Thong Island for the partying, there are great camp sites that all typically have boat ramps all around the lake, and there are a ton of lakeside marinas with restaurants. PK Is a very nice lake , the water is a lot clearer, but it does not have the amenities you are looking for, It has a good party on Holiday weekends down in a cove near the damn, the cove has a name but I don't remember it.

I live in Hurst Tx but I'm from Oklohama. Texoma is all around the best lake if your wanting to travel. The best part is that you dont have to boat hop in a cove all day. You can move around the islands and enjoy the beaches that are throughout the lake.....
A great area to stay is Highport Marina area. look up cantweight.com to get an idea of the atmosphere.

You should join us at Lake Lewisville also!

The cove at PK is Hells Gate.Good thing about PK too is all of the big ass homes.

Clay Washington 03-17-2007 11:14 AM

If you want to see lots of bare breasts and thong bikinis, then you need to go to Texoma. While Hells Gate (on PK) is the party cove, it is calm compared to "the islands" on Texoma.

Texoma also have more/better lodging/camping than PK.

I would recommend launching at Highport Marina and staying at Tanglewood.

Good luck! :cool:

Thanks for the info. I will; be sure to look at all the sit info you all have provided. I am waiting for my upholstry to be completed as well as the props to be twicked. I should be able to get out there within 2 weeks if not sooner. i will have to meet up with you guy's. I am from the Austin area and usual run arround on Travis, or Belton lake. I just moved here to Ft Worth, and I have heard that there are about 5 lakes that are within 1 hour of me......:cool:

Texoma.

I keep my boat there near Highport and it is a much better lake to RUN on.

Plus Leon has free beer at all times at his slip.

I slip a Lake View Marina which is right outside of the "party cove".
We go out almost every weekend. let me know when your gona make it out and I can give you info on some areas to ramp at. Theres only 1 or 2 ramps that allow after 10pm pakring if you plan on staying out late or over night.

masher44 03-21-2007 05:36 PM

First weekend in April I will be out at Texoma.. pretty much all weekend.

Oh man the jealousy is running thick. I've got tax season, then I finish up with some classes I am taking. Don't even have enough time to get a haircut. I will be out on the lake the first weekend of May... all weekend and every weekend of the summer until Labor Day.

Hey masher44 - you got any pictures of your boat?

Sounds good. I will hit you up as soon as my boat gets back from the shop... The anticipations is def increasing...I usualy stay out on the lake pretty late, so a ramp that is open late is a plus.:evilb:

Right.....:rolleyes:

Like it will be running by then.:evilb: :drink:

IM4A2Z 03-22-2007 03:02 PM

I would agree that Texoma over PK for a happening scene.
Texoma "The Islands" is a great party spot.

I will unplug three spark plug wires so you can maybe keep up in your antique. Stecz said you were a putz... I have been out 3 times with mine already. You are afraid those dogsh1t 454s are going to detonate any minute.

Forgot that is Easter weekend... might get out Saturday but if not the weekend after for sure. I am in storage across from Derebery now.

Sweet Python!!!:cool:

masher44 03-22-2007 10:43 PM

Just found today there are two more Skaters that showed up at the lake with MONSTER power:cool:

I don't think that will be enough. Try unplugging 5 and you got a deal.:evilb: :drink:

I highly recommend Texoma for Labor Day and Memorial Day. We traditionally hit PK on Fourth of July. And you can count on a good crowd at Lewisville party cove most weekends. Eagle Mtn. has an annual tie-up in august, however i dont think that lake will be usable this season.Weve got about 4 or 5 boats going to PK Apr. 22 weekend
