My adult son and I went bass fishing on Blackbird Ranch 3/22-23. The lakes are very well managed, and there are some real quality bass in there. We fished Red Lake and my son pulled out an 8 pound five ounce bass, and out of Blackbird Lake, we managed many four pounders, a few five pounders, and a couple of six pounders, and had a ten pounder break me off at the boat. The accommadations are beyond superior. Winfred, the owner is as hospitable and as amicable as they get; a very genuine really nice guy. I highly recommend this ranch for bass fishing.

Me and my friends just came back from Blackbird hunting ranch. I’ve been to a lot of ranches in Texas and this is, without doubt the best ranch we’ve been to. Owner gave us a tour himself. 100 stars for hospitality. Landscape is beautiful. You don’t feel like you are in Texas. It’s not like a South West Texas ranch and is a lot greener. You can see the effort owner puts in. There are protein feed, corn as well as alfalfa and Chaffhaye for the Axis deer. Beautiful variety of exotics in high fence. Beautiful well maintained lakes and ponds for deer especially for Axis deer. Very well setup for white tails. One blind every 100 acres so it’s not congested at all. You can do <100 yards shot or a ELR shot. Oh and you get to stay in a high end lodge with a separate cabin for the guide. Lavish outdoor kitchen with all the options for grilling, smoking and barbecuing you can thin of. Your family can have a wonderful time in the lodge, in the outdoor patio next to make, at the deck around the lake or in the field.
