I'm gonna head to Livingston either Sunday or Monday for the first time ever. I dont really have any big expectations since I have never been there. Will probably put in at the State Park and stay south of 190. Wish me luck.

There have been a lot of whites below the dam and they are also heading into the creeks. Some whites do stay in the lake but I don't know the best places for them this time of the year. I have been slaying them below the dam and I am about to go to Bedias Creek. They should be showing up in all the creeks. Ready to spawn. I caught a limit of whites and a limit of crappie today below the dam.

Ought to try Kickapoo as well.
If I fished for money.........I'd be broke.
In a world of compromise.....Some don't.

No courtesy docks, just rocks and concrete debris. There are a couple sandy places to beach your boat but it is best to have someone with you at least the first time. If they start to release more water you can forget about fishin below the dam for a while until they cut the flow back. Depends on how much rain we get above the lake.

You may want to try Kickapoo creek instead of the dam. It can take some rain before it gets bad.

What is the magic Lure/Bait to use there at the spill way? A rattle trap works wonders.

boom matt wont answer my ? hows the weather!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Matt is a busy guy catching a lot of fish. So far the rain has been pretty much south of the lake from the radar I was looking at today. But the next 2 days will tell a different story.
