I've had fairly decent luck on Waco lately. I haven't caught anything in shallow yet. Everything that I have caught was in the 10 to 15 foot range but nothing of great size. There was a kayak tourney on Tradinghouse last weekend, there were not a lot of fish caught but the ones caught were quality. Thats surprising on tradinghouse it's usually quantity not quality

Main lake rock. N. & S. river sections wood. Way more of the latter than the former. More timber than you could fish in a lifetime in parts. Also, there are two marinas mid-lake with docks.

Does anyone know where I can find the coordinates for the sunken "crappie" condos? I cannot seem to find them. Thanks. Also has anyone fished these with success for largemouth?

Went today and it was really tough in the morning. Later in the day finally found a few fish. The lake is definitely in a funk though

Went Sun and got 15 LMB, most of them keepers but small keepers.
Went this morning and found a lively school of whites for a few mins, where I was catching them as fast as I could cast, reel in, and unhook. Got 10 in 12 casts, several quite nice, then it turned off.
Hopped around from spot to spot and ended up with 16: 10 whites, 6 blacks with the largest about 3 lbs.
Water was 73-75. Visibility 2-3 ft in most of the places where I caught 'em. Elsewhere it was like chocolate milk.

I had a decent time this week. I fished timber ALL DAY and nothing but as soon as I started to fish rocks, it was on! I ended up with a nice 5.54 lbs bass.

Went last week we had 25 up to 6.96 lbs. Best 5 were around 19lbs. Tx rig, crankbait & shakey head. I was doing and instructional trip. It was my my first time there in 15years. Ironically I've been blessed to fish all over the nation & my biggest bass is out of lake Waco.
