The food plots are high fenced, with a high cross fence with wheel gates, to allow the pivot irrigation system to travel to both sides of the food plot. The octagonal fenced food plots have gates in each section of the octagon shape to let the wildlife in when the crop is ready and to allow access by ranch personnel. There are several large double gates for farm equipment access. Corn is a staple in most of the food plots in one half of the circle. The other side of the circle is planted in Lab, Bee Wild Bundle Flower, alfalfa, etc. In addition, there is a 6-acre flood irrigated food plot on an island in the middle of Jalisco Lake.

There is a good system of all-weather and standard pasture roads. The owner has enhanced several roads with additional gravel for smoother transport.

WATER:

Jalisco Ranch includes 200-acre feet of Class B water rights out of the Rio Grande River for irrigation and lake supplementation. The property features Jalisco Lake which is an approximate 60+/- acre managed bass fishery lake. The large lake is then surrounded by four forage ponds above the lake. Bringing the Jalisco Lake Complex to 85.5 +/- acres.

The property has extensive surface water features for the size and is supplemented by water rights. The original lake, which was shallow except for the pit, has been expanded. The Jalisco Lake is now complete with an average depth of 8-12 feet. The lake is an engineered reservoir surveyed by Judd Gilpin of Laredo. It is estimated that 1,470,000 cubic yards were dug to create the 60-acre lake and another 624,750 cubic yards to create the forage ponds. There is a clay cored dam with spillways. The depth at the pit is 24 feet deep. Natural watershed is significant by three to four drainages, in rolling to hilly terrain, within the overall La Perla Ranch. The lake is irregular in shape with numerous fishable areas, with easily accessible banks, and 18 wooden docks (piers) with fish feeders. There is a 6-acre island in the middle of the lake bound by an elevated levee which may be shallow flooded as a waterfowl hunting area. A gravel road leads out to the island from the east bank with a road along the levee. The lake bottom has fish structure including bodark tree stumps and rocks which are positioned near the fishable areas. The lake bottom varies between deep and shallow. There are old gravel roads, which comprise some of the bottom, which produce good spawning areas for bass. The lake has extensive edge and change in bottom structure to attract fish ranging from peninsulas, levees, rocky areas and variable depth water.
