Grade Stabilization Structure Ca-1 Reservoir falls in Dickens County, part of Texas. It sits in open plain country. Small even by pond standards, it rewards one careful line. Our Dickens County list holds plenty of bigger water. Spur sits 17 miles from here and is the nearest stop. It is 53 miles to Lubbock, the nearest city. No border sits close enough to matter.
There is no published depth for this one, so start shallow and work out. Look for the band where the shallows give up and the bottom falls away. Read the surface for the wind lane, then fish the edge of it. Species logged nearby in open biodiversity records include green sunfish. Treat it as evidence of what swims in the area. This water gives up its fish to patience rather than distance.
Expect July to average close to 80°F, with January the cold end at about 39°F. There is no frozen season to plan round. October and November give a second good stretch as it cools. April and May are the settled weeks, with October close behind. That shapes the year on this water.
Whether you may fish here is not something records settle. We find no slipway, car park or made path within a short radius, so treat access as rough. Bluegill and other panfish take small jigs or worms under a float near any cover. Where access is informal, keep it that way by behaving. Rules for boats are stricter than rules for the bank in many places. Grade Stabilization Structure Ca-2 Reservoir sits 0.7 miles off and takes the overflow. None of that is settled for this water in what we hold.
