So I never realized how many good places there were to catch Large Mouthed Bass in the DFW area on the shore. I always assumed those guys fishing on the shore were just tight lining catfish but upon further research there are some GREAT bass fishing spots.
I’m going to go fish Bachman tomorrow since it’s right next to my house. Anyone got any favorite spots or tips for shore bass fishing in the Dallas area?

White Rock Lake and Bachman are my easiest to get to areas but I don’t mind driving a little

We live out by Lavon Lake (Wylie), there's a lot of bank fishing areas there but right now the parks are closed. It's a corp of engineers lake.

Do a google search

I'm going tomorrow and fishing where 78 crosses, see map: LINK

There’s a Bank Fishing forum on Texas Fishing Forum and a Bass Forum too. Use the search function to find posts about Bachman and White Rock Lake. Be careful on White Rock Creek because parts are pretty sketchy from what I’ve read.

Here’s a map of Texas Community Fishing Lakes. You should be able to fish these spots with no concerns about legal issues.

Get a kayak and you’ll have so many more options - WR Lake, Bachman, Lavon, Ray Hubbard, maybe even Joe Pool, Ray Roberts, and Texoma.

Shad spawn will be on in the first week of May - get ready! Go with a sandbass guide on Lavon in a couple of weeks for crazy action. There’s at least on “party boat” guide there who you pay a flat fee to go with and others pay the same fee to go along. Almost guarantee that you will limit out (limit is 50? 75?).
