Lake Livingston Fishing Report 4/8/2019

Good fishing for all species  this past week on Livingston. I really get excited this time of year as weather patterns become more stable and water temperatures remain over 65′. The biggest concern affecting patterns on the north end of the lake is run-off from spring rains.

Lake level at Riverside today is 130.7 and 131.2 at the dam with a release of 7,000 cfs.

White bass fair up the creeks with lots of males being caught with some big females still being caught. Whites are being caught on mid-lake humps when the wind lays.

Several nice black bass were caught and released in Thomas lake on Berkly Blue Power worms.

Blue Cats are moving shallow now providing great action early mornings on fresh shad.

Trotlining has been good in the river channel.  Jug lining good in Bethy, Harmon and Kickapoo creeks.

Steady action for Crappie on minnows an jigs fished

4-6′ in brush and boat houses on northern lake creeks.

Lake Livingston consist of over 90,000 acres of surface water and 450 miles of shore line.

Good luck fishing!
