Looking for some advice on locating some white bass on Lewisville or Ray Roberts. Not looking for any secret spots, just maybe water depth you are having success in and what they are relating to right now. I have slabs and some Rat-l-traps and would just like to put the wife and kids on some fish so they get the bug like me.

Thanks in advance for any tips. God bless.

I fished RR this week. Found fish in 45-55 fow. Find fish and lower a slab down to their level. Slowly pull your slab up through the fish then let it flutter back down. Aggressively working the slab isn't working now. Also thumping the bottom of your boat is bringing and keeping fish under you.

2-5' of water in the creeks and rivers on crappie jigs has been working too. May be best to wait a week for duck season to be over. Here's a recent video where I caught about 2 dozen most dinks.

Double Haulin',

We had success on Lewisville yesterday in open water anywhere from 35-48 FOW. Small flukes and slabs deadsticked anywhere from 24-32 FOW. Your sonar is your best friend right now. You need to mark 3 or 4 fish together before you stop and fish. Your jighead needs to be heavy enough to keep your line perfectly vertical. Wait for the thump and set the hook. Good luck!
