Most Anglers 17 and Older Need a Texas Fishing License at Lake Lavon
Lake Lavon is public water managed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. Most residents and nonresidents age 17 or older need Texas fishing credentials with freshwater privileges there. TPWD lists exceptions. Its current Lake Lavon rule for white bass is a 25-fish daily bag with a 10-inch minimum length.
Licenses are sold online and through TPWD license agents. Most license-year packages expire August 31. One-day, year-from-purchase, lifetime, and Lake Texoma products use different terms, so match the package to the trip instead of assuming every license lasts the same length.
