Texas is home to some of the best big-bass lakes in North America. Lake Fork holds the Texas state record and is synonymous with trophy largemouth. Sam Rayburn is the largest reservoir in Texas and produces consistent limits. Toledo Bend on the Louisiana border is a world-class fishery for both volume and size. Texas bass fishing peaks in spring and fall, with ledge fishing in summer on deeper impoundments producing well for experienced anglers.
