With over 15 years of experience providing fishing charters, Jim McDonald has a vast knowledge of Lake Texoma fishing. He is a licensed US Coast Guard Captain and holds guide licenses in both Texas and Oklahoma.

Jim is a full time fishing guide and has an excellent track record when it comes to Texoma striper fishing. As the owner and operator of Advantage Guide Service, he has a vested interest in seeing that your guided fishing trip on Lake Texoma is memorable so you'll want to come back to fish with him again and again.

"The Memory Catcher" is a custom built 24' deck boat designed with your safety and comfort in mind. The level deck and wide access gate makes the craft wheelchair accessible. The 300hp outboard motor is quiet and puts you on the fish in no time. There is even a bathroom onboard so there's no need to run to shore for a "pit stop".

Lake Texoma has become famous for it's huge quantities of striped bass better known as "stripers". The lake is unique as it's one of the few in the US where stripers reproduce. The stripers travel upstream in the rivers and spawn yearly to give us a new crop year after year. The lake is also home for huge schools of shad, stripers' main food source, and has become well known for it's monster catfish which can be caught on jug line during the cooler months. Advantage Guide Service specializes in catching both striper and catfishing.

Fishing Report from TPWD (Apr. 23)

FAIR. Water stained; 62 degrees; 1.16 feet below pool. The striper fishing is great with the rise in water levels and surface temperatures. The shad spawn is in full force, look for fish shallow along rocky banks on Topwaters and swimbaits. Look for birds on the banks and surface activity. Crappie are still scattered and in spawning stages. Fish are suspended under docks and near the top of brush. Jigs and small shad are working in 12-15 feet of water near creeks and coves. Catfish are showing up along the rocks and shallow flats. Cut shad or prepared baits in 5-12 feet of water near points and drop-offs. Bass are at the backs of coves and for suspended fish near docks. The shad spawn and rise in lake levels will pull fish on to the banks as well. Report by Jacob Orr, Lake Texoma, Guaranteed Guide Service. Striped bass can be found in all depths under the birds. Some fish will move into the creeks searching for warmer water due to the rising water. Best baits are swimbaits in deeper water under seagulls, and topwater under egrets are working the banks. The water is muddy in the river so this will push fish to the main lake seeking better clarity. Report by John Blasingame, Adventure Texoma Outdoors.
