What Texas lakes currently have decent grass in them? How would you guys rank your top 3 currently if you can?
If i'm posting on here i'd rather be on the water.

Most fisherman when talking grass are referring to shallow grass. We need to talk real grass here to find and catch huge Bass.
Lakes that has grass 20 to 30 ft tall from the bottom to just under the surface is the key. If it is just under the surface say 4 or 5 feet then you can have a few spots holding bass that others will not easily find.
Many, many lakes grow the shallow stuff but not many grow the deep hideaway haunts that big fish want to make their summer homes under in the hollows. Yes fishing shallow grass where ever you go and locating it is better than nothing but the bass come and go in it just as they do in other great spots on a lake. These deep grass lakes will produce bass all summer long and into the late fall months until it collapses or the water level drops and it totally disappears.
I am sure there are some other lakes in Texas with it but the only one I have ever fished with this consistency of deep grass is Lake Amistad. I would look forward to the opportunity to go to any of the other lakes that has it. I would cherish the invite to come with those that fish these lakes and show you everything I have learned about catching the big ones on Amistad in its hay day of 30 foot tall grass. PM. me for instructions and my rig of choice to get them out of the tall grass.

Coming to TX from FL, I must admit my disappointment in the complete lack of grass in TX lakes. What you guys call grass is not grass!
