Picking my boat up from the shop Thursday in Crystal River (Live in Tampa), and figured I would stop somewhere on the way back and do some bass fishing. Saw Lake Henderson and looks pretty good from google maps, any other good lakes right now along that route?

Henderson is a great chain. The water is high and clear but the little green fish are biting! Spring seems to have sprung the last week!

Any tips or tricks? I assume still bedding strong?

The brown TURD Mudskippers will also try and take Your shite.
There is an hourly tournament coming up on the 23rd so it 'may' be more busy than usual. The water clarity is roiled due to the HIGH winds, pollen...
Casslaw: You might not believe it but, I went through a 3/4 pack of Rage Craws on a certain jig and was catching them every which way. Even had a 7+ break through the pads, strike at it, get caught and whilst I 'fought' the fish, My 9 month old PETA™ member Birdie figured it best if I didn't bring that one in

Im going to be just north of the Suncoast parkway, not not very far north

I caught only 1. Windier than shit. Limited out on trash
I've been trying the Henderson chain for over a month now and not having much luck... a few here and there, nothing big though. It's been tough
Per the folks that do the Shocking/Counting Lake Henderson not only has the most fish but also a larger "average" then that of Floral City to Lake Davis to Lake Spivey to Lake Henderson to Lake Hernando.
The big $$$ Hourly Tournament is this Sat. 23rd leaving out of Eden Ramp (Lake Spivey)
So I'll go out and look for collapsible hamster cages if the weather heats up..
Yea I'm thinking about doing that tourney, but the way it's been going I'll probably just be donating money and be just 1 more boat in the way lol
I popped in @ApopkaMarine..
Do You know a Junior Angler? They are GIVING AWAY a beautiful little skiff to a Junior Angler.. Before they had a drawing but if You know someone, 2 years ago the Drawing was between 3 kids..
I also mentioned that they also have a "Trash Tournament" NOT to catch "trash fish" but anyone NOT cashing an hourly "win" is eligible to go out and load up as much garbage in 45 min..
But look at the tourney rules as it relates to the Junior Angler boat..
Here is the Flier...
Check-out the Junior Angler boat:

$1000 deal for Female Angler (unk. if a guy could Angle in 'drag'... I'd need a few beers before I get this far into 'it'...)
