One note I my suggest to fishing offshore for bass, we have been catching some nice bass amongst the schools or whites chasing the shad. This applies “offshore” as I’m not throwing at banks. Most you know I like to suggest technics based on my experience. The bass from 2-4lbs mostly have been off temple park main lake point. As the flat goes out several hundred yards, I use my 3.5” 2000 model hummingbird and look for bait balls, Her fish was on chrome deep diving crank. Most my bass caught were on deep diving (20+ type) in fire tiger or white . We have also caught on jigging spoons too but I like to span cast cranks to cover more water looking for hybrids. But those hybrids have been hiding . Largemouth on cranks and my 4lb bass on Mepps #4 in-line spinner, again in search of whites.
Fishing offshore can take you out of your comfort zone but also can be rewarding . I have caught 7-8lb bass on jigging spoons on Lake Austin back in the day but I was offshore and 99% of bass fish
Belton largemouth are notorious for running with the Whites, especially this time of year.

90% of lmb caught this spring were on the girls scout point while white bass fishing. Span casting in all directions . 4lb smallie too
Good luck
I also thump , jig and catch bass too . I use to fish tournaments before. But health forced me sell my Ranger and fish from GF boat. Very blessed

Congratulations. Great bass. Her smile says it all.
I used to fish Belton and Stillhouse all the time and love those lakes.
