Lake Tawakoni
Fishing Report

Lake Tawakoni

Like so many of the reservoirs built in the 50s and 60s, Lake Tawakoni doesn't suffer from an overabundance of aquatic vegetation, although you will find some emergent plants as the water levels increase. Because of the limited cover, when you do find it, you'll also find the Largemouth Bass. Look for flooded timber throughout the lake for your best angling experience. 

Warren Sprague caught the Tawakoni record Largemouth Bass in May 2018. That fish weighed 14 pounds and ws 25 inches. But Tawakoni is known for its fat cats. Jody Jenkins still holds the record for the fish he landed in 2014 - a Blue Catfish weighing 87.50 pounds and measuring 52.50 inches (that's a little more than 4 feet 5 inches!)
