Possum Kingdom Lake is a wakesurfing reservoir in Texas, near Graford. A clear, deep reservoir in the Brazos River canyon country covering roughly 17,000 acres with 310 miles of shoreline.

Possum Kingdom Lake sits in the rugged canyon country of the Brazos River Valley and is known for some of the clearest, bluest water in the Southwest. Its open stretches are popular for wakeboarding and water skiing, especially in summer.

The typical warm-weather window here is April–October, based on Open-Meteo 2019–2023 daily-high climatology. Wakesurfing is a fair-weather sport, so plan around water and air temperatures — and always confirm the current local wake-boat rules before you ride.
