In my opinion second to Florida. Many of west Texas bass heavens experience high salinity and golden algae blooms that cause all manner of ill shite. If it weren’t for that big bass would probably be more common in Texas than Florida. In my experience big bass are easier to catch in Texas…. I’ve never caught a 10 pounder in Florida on an artificial, I’ve caught them on live bait. I have caught some pushing 10 on artificials in Texas…never topped 10 but BUNCHES of 8s. Some west Texas lakes have 6 pounders jumping in the boat eating anything you toss at them.

Yeah our fisheries got hit pretty hard several years ago by golden algae blooms. One trophy lake I used to fish in OK I could pull 7s out of there on artificials and then an algae bloom hit and it was like the lake went dormant. You could fish all day and maybe get one or two bites.
Most of our fisheries have recovered from that since then. Eufala, Broken Bow, and Grand Lake probably top fisheries with great smaller fisheries sprinkled throughout the state.
