Lake Cisco is a lake located north of Cisco in Eastland County, Texas.[2] Texas State Highway 6 passes the lake on the eastern shore.[4]

It is owned by the city of Cisco for municipal water purposes.[3]

Fish species found in Lake Cisco include largemouth bass, channel catfish, white crappie, and redear sunfish.[2]

History

Cisco obtained a permit in June 1920 to build a dam.[3] The dam was completed September 1923, and then the lake was impounded in 1923.[2][3] The lake was reduced in size due to damage to the Missouri–Kansas–Texas Railroad, in which the city was injuncted over. Later, Cisco obtained a new permit in January 1955 to dam Battle Creek to compensate for Lake Cisco's reduced size.[3]
