Cassels-Boykin Park

Cassels-Boykin Park is located in the mid-lake area of Lake Sam Rayburn. This area is known as one of the best locations in Texas for Largemouth Bass due to its flooded timber, lily pads, channels, drop offs and lots of hydrilla. Prime fishing spots near the park include the the Black Forest, Canyons, Deer Stand, Pophers Creek, Atoyac River, Julie Creek, Harvey Creek, Indian Creek, Mud Creek and Veach Basin. Cassels-Boykin Park with its close proximity to great bass fishing, a large pavilion, and ample trailer parking, is a great place to have a large tournament.

To reserve Park amenities or for more information, please contact Jason Kartye County Parks Director at 936-671-5152. The pavilion was designed to facilitate bass tournaments but is also a great venue for weddings.

Cassels-Boykin County Park has 5 new launch ramps on its south shore in addition to its original 4 ramps on the north shore. The new ramps are part one of an ongoing renovation project that began through the efforts of the Angelina County Chamber of Commerce.

Along with the ramps, there also are 100 new parking spaces, an 80-foot handicapped accessible courtesy pier and improved lighting and signage. All of these amenities will be beneficial to the many fishermen and boaters who access the lake through this park.

In addition, Kurth Lake, now owned by the City of Lufkin and just a few miles north off of Highway 59, offers excellent bass, crappie, and hybrid striper fishing. The City also has two parks with lakes that offer bank fishing.
