Fishing a $100 Million Dollar Bass Lake
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 12 сен 2024
- This is the last bass fishing trip I will ever make to lake Fairfield. Sadly this lake and surrounding property have been sold to a private developer for over 100 million dollars and will no longer be accessible to the public for fishing, camping, hiking or any other outdoor activities inside what once was a Texas State Park.

A few days ago, State Rep. Angelia Orr filed a bill while the Texas State Legislature is in session that would claim eminent domain of the property on which Fairfield Lake State Park lies. The land owner would be compensated fair market value for the land.
Going to miss Lake Fairfield. My folks live in that town, and I've fished it my whole life. My dad has been on the lake every day for the last week. Tomorrow is going to be a sad day. There are some big ole bass in there if you know where to look.
Another killer video by LFG … love all the content brother… please keep the videos coming 🔥🔥🔥
Sad deal about Fairfield I used to fish it often years ago, haven’t been in a while but it was an awesome state park and lake combo. Really enjoy your vids glad to see you still do the old school camp and fish keeping it OG.
It hurt my feelings real bad to find out Fairfield is closing. I went 2 weeks ago and caught 30lb+ bags. It was the BEST lake in Texas and will be missed...
The ole lt wright gns and fero rod coming in clutch
Saw that place listed a couple months back and thought how awesome it would be to own that cool of a spot! Wish it would stay a state park though.... with how little public land we have!
Nice man using some bushcraft on your Coleman. Hell yes. I knew there was SOMETHING about you I liked .
You inspired me to go fishing and camping and chase a GIANT bass in the spring, I love these vids u always do this at this time of year much respect brother hope I break my pb ima hit it hard a couple days as well salute bro 💪
Your content with big green things and some camper cooking is awesome! Thanks LFG!
Loved fishing for reds at Fairfield. Had some great days fishing there.
I was lucky enough to fish this lake a couple times last year, it's so sad that such a nice state park people could bring families to is getting closed for a private lake and golf course.
Bring awareness to the issue, if we stand by and do nothing they will destroy all of our parks and recreation areas do to development... It's a major problem all around the u.s.. smh it's pitiful.
Luv me some truck camping! That 3.5 was a toad.
Love the video! Don't sleep in the "shank hammock"!!!! Have a good week!
Hate to see old parks shut down. I find it really odd how the state leases an area for 50+ years and build parks on it. What do they expect to happen at the end of the lease? They just hope that they're offered a renewal? Was their whole plan just to temporarily have a park? It just seems so odd to me.
You're the man! Keep up the outstanding videos.
Love the advice you give!
Fancy equipment helps, but your advice is key to the big ones!
LFG show us that trick when you got hung up and you let go of your pole and made it slide down the line. Dude that was cool. Show us how You did that please.
Hey there from mike from inglwood ca just started watching your channel . I like it. Sorry to here that lake is closing down. I look forward to watching more of your videos

@@FullTimeFishing dito.
i fished this lake in december and caught several 4-5 lbers
Sounds like a great day!
Love your vids LFG! I got a tip for your jerkbait….try to jerk twice in a row fast before you pause….watch the action with one jerk compared to two real quick. You will get a darting action. Also give it a little more slack after the last jerk. Can’t hurt to try it right! And don’t forget to throw 4-6” swimbait in those situations! Have your boy Zaldane hook you up!
God bless Brother!
Love when lfg fishes and camps🤟🤠
Let's go. Really sucks about that nice lake. Wish I could've fished it 😪
Man I was already jonesing for a camping trip right on the water and then you post this lol. My stomach won’t stop growling after hearing that sausage sizzling on the cast iron, I swear I think I can smell it 😂three weeks to go till my two week trip. The count down has already begun lol
You are one of my favorite RUclipsrs. I also watch Lunkers, but he has been slacking, keep on keeping on. I'm looking forward to more videos.
He’s too busy buying garage sale stuff.
That's crazy well you'll find some new spots that's what ur good at love the videos
Love your videos keep up the great work
No one's buying the lake, at least not from the state. It's never belonged to the state. It was being leased by the state. The owners have sold it to a real estate developer.
So if you're going to be upset, be upset with the government that spent millions of dollars to improve a private property. 72 million since 1976.
Oh, by the way, there's a few others in the same situation.
Was a fantastic state park. Really sad that it's closing
You should have 10 million subs, your the best. The lake issue 😡. ~ Texas
There’s something magical about a 3 cheese wiener sizzling in the moonlight lol I’m crying
Another great video!!! Keep them coming!!!!
You and the @googansquad should buy it!
Do it like the Squid Billies. Truck,boat, truck.
Great video man! Thx🤙
Love the Google earth breakdown!!!
Hope you all catch your pb this year!
Love that lake, me and my buddy take a trip their once a year. Hurts to see them sell it.
If it is about to go private I would have kept my limit ever how many that is there. 12-14 inch largemouth are good eating.
Get Johnny Morris on it! Haha
Sorry for my rant you are amazing alongside your brain serviveĺ skills I had similar but now J Barrcacakowsk? .Matt and yourself need to capture and manage the elusive PARIC do it xoxoxo
He is pure gold !
My god man googan should have bought this. The ultimate step. Flair linker googan etc definitely could afford it
It's sad to see places like this close. But they got to make room for all the people moving from California somewhere.
Thanks for putting the red arrow in the picture so we could see where the lake was😂😂😂
It's such BS dude. Absolute crap. Glad you got to hit it one last time.
It would be cool if they would make into something like Fun Valley in South Fork Colorado
Hunted it a few times through Texas draw hunts. It’s a cool place
How many people snag fish with livescope now?
Big bummer about Fairfield. Such a fun lake
There are other State parks which could be in trouble as well. Ray Roberts is one of them as well....
Man it's sad how they let companies buy land an shut down public waters . It's happening to our local state an county lakes !!
One of these days I hope you make a Red Oak Bow Build video.
I saw some Lake Fork baits for sale yesterday, made me think of you! Edit: 6:15 what do you call this maneuver? 2nd edit: “What? What?! You just hooked a gar??!!” That’s actually awesome, I think.
How bout Googan buys it and subscribers can come fish and camp there and potentially meet some creators? Host a pro Bass tourney there or a Pro/Am? Seems like that could be a good investment.
Shank me in my hammock, sounds like a good love song.
This was my moms, (RIP) favorite place to go when they went went camping.
Konten yang sangat bagus kawan... salam kenal.... sukses selalu 🙏🙏
It is BS that they are making it a private lake.
It's BS that you can just buy a lake and all the property around it, when it's owned by the state and is a major public campground.
@rowdy broomstick the state never owned it, it was leased land
@@rowdybroomstick6394 98% of Texas is private land 😄
Theirs little to NO public land as it is in Texas let alone leased land to be just be selling it off like their a dime a dozen 🤷 sucks for the people of Texas! Most everything here is owned by the state unless it's just raw hunting land. If it's campgrounds and public facilities it's owned by the state mostly.
Hopefully they'll allow some permits to be sold and still allow some fishing and camping. Would be a complete waste to just bulldoze everything.
The main reason I will never live in texas… they just hate public land
Man sometimes that livescope will suck you in and wont let go
I wish I couldve dangled with ya. So sad to see such a beautiful chunk of land go private.
When does that GS A-Rig release? I want one!
Just because you see movement on the fish finder it don't mean there Gar or bass or crappie far as we know it's fish poop floating together 😉
When can we expect the new baitcasters coming out?
Can you explain to me how you freed your crank bait from that tree
Relatable yt, you a good one
😆 ...those Buffalo are so much fun to hook until you realize it's a Buffalo!
Ya think ya got a PB for a quick second!
I'm puzzled by the fact that you step on your fish.
LuFG, what’s happened to the old Fishing Freak hats? I may have missed somethin in the past
LFG!
Hindsight is always 20/20 but the state screwed up not getting a long term deal to protect their investments early on
Shank me in my hammock! Lol!
Googan Squad fish camp and academy...
LFG.. You need a real truck so you can tow a 5th wheel camper and your boat behind the camper.. Double tow like a REAL outdoorsman! ;)
I miss the ol’ LFG Fishing Freak hats
Buy a lot on that lake and build a lake house.
Buffalo is not a carp.
That's just absolutely insane man.. You can buy a lake !! America is one wierd place..
does anyone know what the new owner of the lake and land is going to do with it?
Spinner baits weather.
Let’s start a gofundme and buy this joker back!
That’s a shame there taking a public area making it into a private area It will affect a lot of folks that enjoyed the park Hope it falls through 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🎣🎣
That would be cool if they would let you go back and fish it, It wouldn’t hurt to ask!!!
I'm Jealous February 21 I had a 2 feet snow storm at my house with a high of 17 and now iys the 28 and still snowing
Who bought it and what are they doing with it?
What’s happening to Lake Fairfield is an absolute TRAGEDY.
My pb came out of there this year 8.85 and my nephew In the same cast caught his pb 10.15 😮💨😩😭😭😭😭
It’s sad that this country allows private sector to purchase natural lakes it isn’t fair to us fishermen or the public
hi everyone! is there people from texas that could help me? I'm from canada and I would like to plan a bass fishing trip in texas in the near future... do you guys have any recomendation on a guide, location and time of the year I should look for? thanks!
How your videos man
Damn shame. Are they going to be shutting down the power plant too?
Power plant already shut down years ago
@@MyGeniusLeads I figured when he said the water temp was 57 that It wasn't running anymore because the water temps would already be upper 70s if It was.
Nice
A vote for Abbott was a vote for this sale of this place.
Why would anyone close the lake
I keep lighters stashed everywhere. Especially the truck
Just a coincidence that the first bait you throw matches your shirt???
Sorry about your fishing hole
Sammi Phelps hi 🙋♀️ ❤❤❤LFG❤❤❤❤
How the hell can a lake be made private….whoever owns it would have to own the town or towns around it.
