Idk if you can see water clarity or depth clearly but there’s a huge weed bank about 20-30 feet out then a really clear drop off. Any tips on what I should use for bass? In north Texas btw

I’d start with a spinnerbait and try to cover some water and see if you get any strikes. Should be pretty weedless cutting through the vegetation.
A Texas rigged soft plastic paddletail swimbait would probably work well too. Something like a ZMan 4″ DieZel Minnow on a 3/0 EWG hook with an 1/8oz bullet sinker.
Not sure what your water temps are but if it’s colder the bass may be out deeper right now where the water temps are more stable.

Water bottle and styrofoam cup in 3rd picture, don’t forget to pick them up.
Fish the edge of the weed line and the drop off. Don’t know what the temps are there but since it’s winter fish slow, a bit of movement, then pause for a bit, repeat.

I haven’t taken water temp, but air temp is averaging about 30° in the morning and 65° in the afternoon. Also it gets really windy here, anywhere from 10mph on a good day to 30mph
