Sabine National Forest Freshwater Fishing Travel Tips

  • Sabine National Forest is part of the central flyway for migratory birds so watch for hawks, songbirds, and shorebirds while you fish.
  • Toledo Bend Reservoir is a nationally known bass fishing lake. The predominant fish species in Toledo Bend are largemouth, white, and striped bass as well as crappie and catfish. This area is home to numerous fishing tournaments.
  • Anglers are more likely to catch largemouth bass during the cooler months. Fish in 12-15 foot water, creek channels, and sloughs to catch catfish.
  • State fishing licenses for either Texas or Louisiana are required for stream or lake fishing. There are over 26,000 acres of prime sport fishing in lakes and 18 miles of perennial streams that support warm water fish.
