Half Day Trip (AM)2 adults

These guys will put you on fish quick. We checked a couple spots but they didn’t waste any time deciding to move. On the third spot we had our limit all within the first hour. After that it was catch and release until lightning pushed us off of the water. They quickly filleted our catch and bagged them for our trip home.

    Lake Livingston in September

    Half Day Trip (AM) • 2 adults

    Had to work for it, but still managed a decent haul of white bass for a morning charter. Beautiful weather. Captain John is great, and I will certainly use him again on my next time to Lake Livingston. The wife and I had a really great time!

    Lots of Fun, Lots of Fish!

    Half Day Trip (AM) • 2 adults

    We had a great day fishing with Captain John. It was projected to be very hot so Captain John suggested we leave an hour early, smart decision. The day turned out to be perfect for fishing. Captain John is a wonderful skipper and guide, great stories and he knows where the fish are. The bite was off the day before, but the day we went, we caught 54 fish in about three hours! Captain John and his wife cleaned and filleted the fish (in record time) and we had an awesome fish fry that evening. It helps that my son is a chef and knows his way around a southern fish fry! All in all, if you want to have a great day on the water, book a day with Captain John and Lake Livingston Texas Fishing.
