Comanche Creek Reservoir (formerly Squaw Creek Reservoir) is a 13.3 km² impoundment located between Glen Rose, Texas and Granbury, Texas. The primary purpose is cooling for Comanche Peak Nuclear Generating Station. During full operation of both units of Comanche Peak, 8,300 m3 of water are pumped through the plant's main condensers from Comanche Creek Reservoir. In various years the lake has been stocked with channel catfish, largemouth bass, smallmouth bass, shad and talapia. There are several species of fish that live in this reservoir. These species include Largemouth and smallmouth Bass, Channel Catfish, Tilapia, and Sunfish. These species of fish are well managed as there are events to catch certain species of fish to manage populations.
