According to the Texas Freshwater Fisheries they like 13# and up Large Mouth Bass. I took my daughter there when SPLASH was still alive and the biologist said they had to move a large Flathead out of the main display tank. They were loosing the large bass and finally walked in one morning to see the tail of a 13# plus bass sticking out of its mouth.

Stubbys cheese bait, use a #4 treble. Switch to a #6 if youre missing hookups.
