Lake Tyler Fishing Guide

Angling Opportunities

A canal connects Lake Tyler East with Lake Tyler West. Both lakes have a great reputation as consistent largemouth bass fisheries. They are popular with tournament anglers and host frequent night tournaments during the summer. Most fish are in the 2- to 8-lb class with a few over 10 lbs.

Cover & Structure

Aquatic vegetation is abundant in the upper end of both lakes. Tyler East has good stands of native vegetation and abundant hydrilla. Tyler West has less hydrilla than native plants; the species has not become problematic, perhaps due to water level fluctuation and seasonal consumption by waterfowl.

Tips & Tactics

Although fishing in both lakes can be good all year, boating and personal watercraft activity can become very intense during summer months. Many fishermen find that early morning and late evening are more peaceful times to fish

Fishing Regulations

A City of Tyler ordinance prohibits bow fishing on these lakes.
