What would you recommend to anglers fishing in Livingston, Texas for the first time?

Dress in layers and have a warm coat and gloves if fishing in winter. The wind can make the temps feel quite chilly. Consider bringing a thermos of your favorite hot beverage for an extra treat. Enjoy the scenery. Take pics if the bites slow.

Hire a guide and preferably Fishin Addiction or J M Guide service. Otherwise, you wil have a had time locating fish in this large, deep lake. A person could do it yourself and be years learning the lake well enough to be successful.

Definitely book a trip with Captain John for coffee this time of year we slated them.

We picked a day based on our personal availability, not based on the optimal time for our targeted fish. Recommend fishing Livingston in May and June for optimal activity.

Book with a quality guide, it makes for a better experience when you go with someone who knows the lake.
