Christmas in Heritage Park at the Hopkins County Historical Society




If you're looking for an enjoyable evening on December 6th, visit the Hopkins County Historical Society's Heritage Park. We attended Saturday, November 30th and it was the perfect way to get into the holiday spirit. Entrance to the park is $3 per adult and children under 7 are free. The park is filled with Christmas lights. The blacksmith was doing demonstrations and free hot chocolate was being served in the log cabin. You can also find Santa in the log cabin and snap a picture with the kids. The chapel had Christmas bell music and the Atkins house had dulcimer music as well as free cookies and punch. You could even roast marshmallows and hear stories in the old school house. The old general store also has unique toys and items for the kids as well as many old antiques.

Fishing Report from TPWD (Apr. 23)

GOOD. Water Stained; 63 degrees; 0.25 feet below pool. Bass fishing has been slow with some early morning catching near areas with the shad spawn using DieZel chatterbaits. Once bass move off the shore, switch to squarebill crankbaits in 3-5 feet, or Yum dingers and flukes around grass, and frogs in the grass. Report by Marc Mitchell, Lake Fork Guide Service. Black bass are post spawn and the top water bite is on! Frog patterns are working in the shallow vegetation. The crappie are moving shallow, small clousers are producing well. Large bream have moved shallow, wooly buggers are producing good fish. Channel catfish are cruising 2-4 feet biting clousers. Report by Guide Alex Guthrie, Fly Fish Fork Guide Service. The crappie fishing on Lake Fork is moving rapidly into the post spawn pattern. Fish are loading up on brush piles, ledges, underwater bridges, road beds, bridges and post spawn trees in 14-25 feet. The fish are hungry after the spawn and they will bite just about anything you out in front of them. We are having great luck with small hand tied jigs but minnows and soft plastics will also work for the next few months until water temps heat way up. Seeing a lot of small fish this year mixed in so some days you will catch and release a lot of short fish. Report by Jacky Wiggins, Jacky Wiggins Guide Service.
