Lake Conroe surged to the forefront of big bass lakes in Texas during the 2008-2009
season, producing four ShareLunkers, the same number as Lake Fork. One of those fish, a 15.93-pounder, earned Ricky Bearden of Conroe Angler of the Year honors
for catching the largest entry. Bearden’s fish is also the new water body record for Lake Conroe.
