Pantex Reservoir lies in Hutchinson County, in Texas. Oak and grass runs right down to the water. About 24 acres of surface, which puts the far bank inside easy sight. It is high ground by Texas standards. The town to know is Borger, 2.9 miles out. Beyond it, Stinnett at 9.3 miles and Fritch at 14 miles. A border sits close enough to be relevant to the paperwork.
Depth remains unrecorded, so treat the first session as a survey. Standing timber shows when the level drops, and fish sit against it. Built water gives depth close in, which suits a bank angler. Hutchinson County records list walleye, largemouth bass and smallmouth bass among the fish reported. County records show what lives in the area; the local agency holds the water-by-water list. Pantex Reservoir fishes better once you know its edges.
Climate records put July near 80°F and January near 36°F. Long warm spells define the calendar more than any cold. Shade and hour of day matter more than month. The cooler months are the comfortable ones to fish here. On Pantex Reservoir that shapes the whole year. A grey, mild day is often better than a bright, still one.
The access position is unclear from public sources. No made access is recorded, so a short walk in is the likely arrangement. For the bass here, soft plastics worked slow along cover and a spinnerbait for searching do most of the work. A phone call first saves an afternoon. Signs go up and come down, so check on the day. The nearest alternative is Weatherly Lake, 4.7 miles out. The position on Pantex Reservoir is worth confirming on the day.
