Crappie
Lake Livingston, near Onalaska, Texas, is a crappie angler's paradise, offering abundant opportunities to catch these tasty panfish. Spring is the peak season, as crappie move into shallow coves and creek channels to spawn. Look for submerged brush piles, standing timber, and boat docks in 5-10 feet of water. Minnows and jigs are the go-to baits, fished under a bobber or with a slow retrieve. During the summer months, crappie will often move deeper, congregating around submerged structure. Use your fish finder to locate these schools and drop jigs or minnows vertically. A local tip: many anglers have success fishing around the numerous bridge pilings in the lake. Lake Livingston State Park offers excellent access and facilities. The crappie in Lake Livingston are known for their size, with many reaching 1-2 pounds and some exceeding 3 pounds.
