FAIR. Water stain; 65 degrees; 0.39 feet below pool. Very few anglers on the water. Expect fish to start pushing shallow as the water warms.
Livingston
GOOD. normal stain; 64 degrees; 0.37 feet above pool. White bass are on the way back from the creeks and making their way back to the main lake. Some are still spawning but are about to finish up. Throwing white or chartreuse tail spinners is landing fish. Water in the creeks is 68 degrees. and 64 degrees in the main lake. Report by Michael Richardson, Lake Livingston Adventures.
Sam Rayburn
GOOD. Water stained; 66 degrees; 1.25 feet above pool. Number of fish spawning in shallow water. Bass are spawning on the banks hitting white spinnerbaits, and white swim jigs. Crappie are on the banks and spawned out. It is the time to wade around the stumps for crappie. Catfish are good in shallow water in the creeks with cut bait. White bass are good points with jigging spoons.
Toledo Bend
SLOW. Water stained; 62 degrees; 0.85 feet below pool. Water temperature is holding right around 60-64 degrees and the lake is on the rise. Bass are good in 1-6 feet of water with frogs, wacky worms, senkos, and Texas rig lizards. Post spawned fish are starting to show up in 8-12 feet on shal-low running crankbait in shad color, or Carolina rigs. If the lake continues to rise, the bass will go to the flooded bushes.
