Dave, I see he is in Houston. I suppose it would increase the value there. Other areas it wouldn't make a difference. I've seen many large lakes in TN, say 50+- acres sell on farms and it not really make a difference at all. I'm sure it would make a huge difference in other areas. Maybe because it was marketed locally rather than nationally, I don't know. From what I gather, if something is over 5 or 10 acres, it becomes nearly impossible to manage as a fishery by one or two people. Not that fish management matters to many people or landowners. If money is no object, I would hire the experts and proceed. I just saw a 60 acre parcel w' a 17 acre lake go for $225,000. I would think the dam alone would approach that, but apparently the people who sold it didn't figure it in.
Regarding Sawyer Brown's lead singers former lake, the 15 acre lake immediately downstream appears to hold like a bathtub.
:p
