Carlos was fishing a lot different with the low water in 2021. The shoreline structure was very "burnt" from the sun and lack of depth, so the panfish forage has been pushed to the deeper weediness. The deeper grass was much more healthy. However, there is a LOT of grass in Carlos so using search baits is your best option. I got a lot of quality fish fishing a jackhammer & white spinnerbait over grass lines near deeper water. Topwater on main lake points & around docks can be really fun in the early morning.

Forage
Bluegill
The water level is very low on the chain this year. The shallow structure that is USUALLY very productive in the summer, is very torched from the low water levels. Forage seems to have moved out to the deeper weediness where the grass is healthy and green. Shallow grass is very brown and scummy. Bass were easily caught in weed lines from 8-15' with moving baits. Chatterbait, spinnerbait and square bill crank baits were effective.
