ABOUT THE WATER
Plan the lake, not just the trip.
Lavon Lake is a Collin County reservoir northeast of Dallas and about four miles northeast of Wylie. It covers roughly 21,400 acres, reaches about 59 feet at maximum depth, was impounded in 1953, and is managed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.
TPWD documents largemouth bass, white bass, blue and channel catfish, crappie and sunfish. Water willow and American lotus are among the documented native plants. FishRook also connects Lavon's public-access information with any privately hosted docks, shoreline spaces or launch access offered by authorized property owners.
Managing authority: US Army Corps of Engineers 3375 Skyview Drive Wylie, Texas 75096 (972) 442-3141
Aquatic vegetation: Native emergent vegetation includes water willow and floating American lotus is present.
Fishrook organizes official waterbody information and private hosted access in one place. A Fishrook reservation applies only to the host's described private access space—not to the public lake itself.
