Lake Texoma Fishing Report - "Stripers ATTACKED Us!"




Is this Moby Dick? or Jaws? Anaconda? No. Nope. Not at all. Today The Real Striper Fishermen of Lake Texoma present, in their own words, the Lake Texoma Fishing Report. Actual quotes from enthusiastic fishermen about summer striper fishing follow: We Were Attacked! Lake Texoma Fishing Report - Jeff O'Neal from Fort Worth TX: "The striper's attacked us! Our striper guide was cruising the lake and watching his fish finder the whole time. All of the sudden he said 'Here they are men, get ready! Drop your slabs and when you hit bottom, reel them straight up. Hold on tight!' "Myself and four buddies dropped our slab lures in the water. Immediately, we had FIVE fish on. The stripers were hungry and they were inhaling the lure before it made it to the bottom. Two hours of extreme CHAOS! We had so many fish on we were crossing fishing rods and climbing over each other. Whooping and hollering the whole time." "Big stripers! Mean stripers! The fish would strike hard. Bending the rods and the drag adjustment on our reels were screaming. These stripers fight from the moment they strike the lure and never give up. Shaking their heads and pulling hard, fighting you all the way to the boat." "I have never seen anything like this ever in my life!"   Top Water Bliss Lake Texoma Fishing Report - Rick Webb and 16 year old son Colt from Greeley, CO: " The top water fishing is unbelievable.Colt caught his first striper ever, and together we caught forty stripers. Colt said "My left arm is sore. It was an absolute blast!" "Every cast was a big striper. As fast as we could release the fish and cast, another monster fish would crash on the top water plug. This was top water bliss. We are" chomping at the bit" to get back."   The Striper Fishing Was Ridiculous! Lake Texoma Fishing Report - Scott Fittz from Dallas: "The fishing was ridiculous today! We've been fishing with Striper Express for several years and our charter this week was off the charts." "Deep water slab fishing for huge stripers is awesome. The fish strike so hard they almost take the rod out of your hands. My boss and and an important client were ecstatic! FYI, if you have clients that like to fish. You've just found the best sales tool ever - striper fishing is valuable one-on-one time with your clients."   Insane Fishing! Lake Texoma Fishing Report - Jeff Somers of Fort Worth TX: "This was stranger than my alien abduction!" "I was fishing in the front seat of the boat and using my cell phone. Then all heck broke loose behind me. My friends were laughing and grunting as every one of them got a fish online. Then when a striper inhaled my slab. The fish was thrashing, a dip net went flying, and my phone slipped off my chin" "I thought I was in the safe zone sitting on the bow seat but I was wrong. I see why the guide brings two dip nets. "This striper fishing is insane!"   Click for Details On Striper Express Lake Texoma Fishing Guides

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.
