Lake Waco is now above normal which gives these fish even more cover to hide in which can make for some long days until you find them.  To help cut some of that time down, don't just start fishing down the banks with brush. The whole lake is like that, start fishing on the high potential area points, small creeks and the larger creeks but in the larger creeks get on the flats have definite tree lines and fence lines or small ditches.  Some fish are still spawning so if you can get shallow enough and find clear water, sight fishing is pretty good cause the bass are not getting a lot of pressure.  I am using Spinnerbaits  on 30lb. line and I am throwing it on a little heavier rod than normal cause most of the fish I am having to horse them out with a Power Tackle FB4-7’3”I caught a  8.09 lbfor big  bass at a Skeeter Open this past month, so the big girls are out there!  I caught her on a PG144 7’0” with a buzzbait. 

Good Luck,
