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!

Fire any sort of small swimbait up on points where shad are spawning early in the morning and hold on! this is a hot and heavy, super fast paced bite that works well for largemouth and smallmouth this time of year on belton
