Lake Travis is sitting about 9 feet low, with 4–6 ft visibility and a tannic tint to the water. Temps are in the low 80s, with sunny, calm conditions.

Bass are showing up on 45° sloping shorelines with a mix of rock, brush, and docks. Most bites are coming in less than 12 ft of water. Drop-shot rigged finesse worms in green shades have been the most consistent producer, while a finesse jig with a chunk trailer has drawn strikes from some of the better fish.

A lot of bass right now are feeding on small bluegill — many of the fish we caught were regurgitating them, and schools of small bluegill are thick around shallow brush. The overall bite is a little slow for keeper-sized fish, though plenty of smaller bass are willing to bite with the occasional solid keeper mixed in.
