Stephen Andre' will show you how to hunt down and catch Lake Texoma Striper using artificial lures. The Best Lake Texoma Fishing Guide rated #1 in client recommendations and satisfaction.

I do not use live bait. I am a true to heart artificial lure fisherman. I get much more satisfaction tricking those fish with an artificial lure. My guide service is unique in that I only use artificial lures. I do not use live bait and I do not troll. We will hunt our fish down using structure, birds and electronics. We FISH with slab spoons, swimbaits or top water lures. We FEEL that fish bite, SET the hook and FIGHT them into the net! That's the way I grew up and to me that's FISHING! Fishing with artificial lures allows us to fish from very shallow water to very deep water and gives us the opportunity to move around and chase fish and see the lake and the natural surroundings. I have clients that have only used live bait in the past with other guides and they say they will never go on a live bait trip again. It is truly a special event when catching these striper on artificial lures. We're out there to catch fish and I will do what I need to do to make that happen. I will cover the entire lake if I have to in order to get some striper in the cooler for you all to take home. You are there to catch striper and I am there to make it happen!

The first time I fished Lake Texoma was in 1996, with a Lake Texoma fishing guide, and we got into those stripers on top water lures and I've been hooked on this lake ever since! I am fully licensed and properly insured to be a Lake Texoma fishing guide. I am fortunate enough to be able to do what I love to do for a living and support my family. I have been blessed! I am passionate about teaching, helping and watching people catch fish and reel them in, so let's get on the water!!

When you book your fishing trip with me, I'll email you a confirmation itinerary that includes your trip specifics such as the date, boarding time, maps and other information. I'll be ready to go when you arrive. Since you may not be able to get out on the water as much as I do, if you need practice casting a rod and reel or some quick lessons, we'll do some casting when we first go out and get all the bugs worked out. If you have little kids, as I do, I can teach them to cast or cast for them if they get tired or if they just don't want to; no problem! I provide all rods, reels, lures and fish cleaning. Just bring your drink cooler (beer is fine!) and food and get ready to have some fun!

Once our time on the water concludes, typically 4 to 5 hours, we'll enjoy a boat ride back to the dock and take a group photo of our catch and any other pictures you want before I clean your catch.

One thing I don't believe in is using live bait. The bait in the lake is their only food source...let them eat and get fat and happy! I am a true to heart artificial lure fisherman and have been most of my life. I get much more satisfaction tricking those fish with an artificial lure than just sitting and staring at the end of my fishing pole waiting for a live bait to catch the fish for you. Fishing with artificial lures allows us to fish all water depths and gives us the opportunity to move around and chase fish and see the lake and the natural surroundings. It's all about being out there with nature!

Fishing Report from TPWD (Apr. 17)

GOOD. Water normal stain; 58 degrees; 1.53 feet below pool. Striped bass fishing is great drifting live shad around the islands or past the bridges near the rivers. Rain should finish off the spawn and look for bait on the banks with feeding fish near them. Top waters are working on sandy flats in 2-8 feet of water. Smallmouth bass are good on live shad along the bluffs on the banks in 2-4 feet of water. Also fair on spooks early and look for largemouth off the banks in 6-12 feet of water on main lake points near rocks. Catfish are fair on cut shad along the rocks in 30-45 feet of water. Drifting cut rough fish or gizzard shad in 5-10 feet of water near the river could produce a big fish after a rain with an inflow of dirty water. Crappie are good on brush piles in 12-18 feet of water on jigs using electronics to locate active fish working in and out of the brush. Look for spawners shallow with warmer temperatures in the forecast. Report by Jacob Orr, Guaranteed Guide Service Lake Texoma. Threadfin shad are spawning along the banks. Hybrid stripers are good on topwaters in the morning along rocky banks. Some days the egrets are working leading the way to fish. Some schooling activity under gulls. After the morning bite ends switch to swimbaits and Alabama rigs in 10-25 feet of water on the edges and dropoffs. This pattern should hold for the next 4-6 weeks while shad spawn near docks and banks. Report by John Blasingame, Adventure Texoma Outdoors.
