Lake Belton is fairly unique in that it sports very clear water in many areas as well as largemouth and smallmouth. I was able to catch largemouth on small swimbaits and flukes, very shallow along laydowns in the creek arms. Smallmouth I caught in the main lake along laydowns, rock ledges and deep along submerged timber using both weedless wacky rigs and weighted weedless wacky rigs. This lake is a ton of fun! Good luck!

Shad
Lake Belton has finally reached water temps of over 70 and nearly every species of fish in the lake are spawning!! Shad spawn is strong just before, and right at daybreak. The lake is cloudy with an algae bloom and visibility is only around a ft or so making sight fishing very difficult. Finess swimbaits, ned rigs and finesse jigs as well as short C-rigs with Zoom ring fry's are putting numbers in the boat but size is an issue but 2 1/2 to 4 lb fish are able to be caught.
