Striped Bass
Targeting striped bass near McKinney, Texas, means heading to nearby reservoirs like Lavon or Ray Roberts. These lakes, impounded on the East Fork of the Trinity River and the Elm Fork of the Red River respectively, offer the best opportunities. Spring and fall are prime times, as the stripers move shallower to feed and spawn. Look for them near points, humps, and submerged timber. Trolling with crankbaits or casting swimbaits can be effective, especially in areas with good current or wind. Live shad is always a reliable option when conditions are tough. Be aware that Lake Lavon can experience significant water level fluctuations, so check conditions before you go. The Collin Park boat ramp on Lavon is a popular access point, but can get crowded on weekends, so arrive early.
