Lake Lavon

21,400 acres • Max depth 59 ft

Lake Lavon is located northeast of Dallas and is the childhood stomping grounds of professional crappie angler Wally Marshall (Mr. Crappie). The lake, which is noted for crappie fishing, boasts high harvest rates of quality fish. In the winter, crappie are usually found around deep structures, especially on south-facing shorelines. The fish migrate to shallow water in the spring to spawn, providing anglers with ample opportunities to reel in quality crappie.
