I live a stone’s throw from Lake Thunderbird - it’s a handy fishing spot.
You have your purists who call Thunderbird, Dirty-bird, but that’s Norman’s water supply. It’s really only dirty when the water level is low - most of the time the lake is as blue as any other.
Of course, the blue is from a distance, up close you can see that the water IS murky and dirty. But that just makes it a great lake for crappie!
People are pulling foot long crappie out of T’bird these days.
The docks were a favorite spot for many fisherman but sadly we lost the northern dock area to a tornado earlier in the year. I haven’t been back to that side of the lake yet, but I bet as they rebuild that it’ll return to being a great spot to fish.
