Lake Livingston
Fishing Report Water fairly clear; 68 degrees; 4.01' low. Black bass are good on spinnerbaits, crankbaits, and soft plastics. Striped bass are slow. White bass are fair on slabs, pet spoons, and hellbenders. Crappie are very good on minnows. Channel and blue catfish are excellent on cutbait and shad. Yellow catfish are slow.
Fishing Cover/Structure Some native emergent vegetation can be found in the upper areas of the reservoir. Very little cover exists in the lower reservoir due to vertical bulkhead.
Tips & Tactics White bass are most readily caught in early spring in the many creeks that feed into Lake Livingston. Striped bass can be caught around the 190 bridge area by trolling and vertical jigging spoons or live shad. Largemouth bass are most frequently caught in the bays and creeks from the Kickapoo/Penwaugh area northward. Spring and fall are the most successful seasons for largemouths. Channel and blue catfish can be caught most any time of year on a variety of organic and live baits over the main river channel and in off channel tributaries and creeks.
