Livingston Fishing Report

Feb 4, 2026

GOOD. Light stain; 55 degrees; 0.22 feet above pool. Lake Livingston’s water remains around conservation pool with a light stain typical for the area and winter conditions, and recent cool weather has the water in the mid-50s to mid-60s depending on timing and location. Weather has been mild but cooler fronts are pushing fish deeper and slowing some bites, so slow, deliberate presentations around deeper structure, creek channels, and tributary mouths are paying off best. Anglers are finding white bass schooling in pockets and will often hit spoons or slabs in deeper water, while catfish remain solid along main lake channels and deeper holes on cut bait or live shad. Largemouth bass activity is fair around deeper cover and creek bends on worms, jigs, and plastics, striped bass are fair on spoons or shad offerings, and crappie can be picked up in suitable cover using minnows and small jigs.
