WATER: Double T Ranch obviously offers trophy class whitetails, many over the 200 mark. And because of that sometimes the trophy class largemouth bass get overlooked. As history states, Kings Lake was built in 1943 to supplement a sugar cane operation in Edgewood. When the owner purchased the property he enlarged the three acre Kings Lake to six acres, rebuilding the dam and pouring a concrete spillway. No worries about erosion now. The lake was then restocked with largemouth bass and crappie. To date, the largest bass caught is 8lbs by a high school friend fishing from the bank!! There are four other small ponds and two creeks on the property, wildlife are never far from water. Worth mentioning here, Bass Capital of the World, Lake Fork is a mere 25 minutes.
