Houston County Lake is located near Crockett, Texas, and was constructed in 1966 for the purpose of flood control, water supply, and recreation. The lake is primarily fed by the Bedias Creek watershed, and the water is used for agricultural irrigation, livestock, and municipal purposes. The surface flow of the lake is managed by the Brazos River Authority, which operates the dam and spillway. The snowpack in the area is typically minimal, with precipitation occurring primarily in the form of rain. The lake is popular for fishing, boating, and camping, and is home to several species of fish, including catfish, bass, and crappie. The surrounding land is used for agriculture, primarily for cattle and hay production.
