Carp
Livingston, California, offers surprisingly good carp fishing opportunities in its network of canals and sloughs. These waterways provide ideal habitat for carp, with plenty of vegetation and slow-moving water. Carp anglers often find success in the warmer months, from late spring through early fall. Popular spots include the canals that branch off from the Merced River. Look for areas with overhanging vegetation or submerged structure. Traditional carp baits like corn, dough balls, and boilies are effective. A local tip: pre-baiting an area for a few days before fishing can significantly increase your chances of success. Carp in this area can be quite wary, so using a stealthy approach and light tackle can be beneficial.
