Lake Texoma-CrossCreek Guide Service




The winter fishing was extraordinary, in that this past year, and leading into 2015, I have seen the biggest amount of big fish caught, with some records set of nice good fish.  I have entered into some striper tournaments, with my group finishing near the top for three events.   Last event we won big fish with a 19.5 and a 14.3 fish.   These tournament are fun, with a great job handled by Bud Light Trails, and the Pottsboro Chamber of Commerce.   Other than these, I have been busy with my charter groups, catching fish each day, with fish from 20 to 10 pounds, releasing a good number since it is only two fish over 20 inches per person.  During spring break the kids and parents swarm in for two solid weeks, with some of the finest weather and catches imaginable.   Now with Easter around the corner, and warm weather beginning, I am really getting booked solid, but plenty of good days left so call when you can.   Not discounting the great fish we are catching, but I have seen some of the most beautiful days on the water, and am here to tell you the "Striper Capital of the World", and one of the most beautiful lakes, and if you have not seen it, it needs to be on the top of your "to do" list.   Anyway great fishing, and see you on the water...JD

Fishing Report from TPWD (May 1)

GOOD. Water normal stain; 67 degrees; 0.33 feet below pool. Striped bass fishing is great on top waters early along rocky shorelines and sandy flats around coves. Watch for birds on the banks and fish the direction the birds are moving up and down the rocks. Live bait is still very effective fishing ledges and humps near the river channels in 35-45 feet of water. The shad spawn is on and catching will only get better. Crappie fishing is good near boat docks and on structure also using electronics to locate roaming fish in 12-15 feet of water. Glo and milk are colors of choice with a crappie nibble tip. Seeing females in the creeks 2-5 feet of water as well. Catfishing is getting better on cut shad and prepared baits anchored on ledges in 40-50 feet of water a few reels off the bottom near rocky banks. Slip cork with a cut shad down the bluffs are producing channel cats preparing to spawn as well. Bass fishing is good using top waters early, spooks or closed face glide baits and fish crawl baits later. Fish are roaming near the beds and hitting white chatter baits as well. Live shad down the bluffs are producing numbers with the occasional big fish off the rocks in 5-8 feet of water. Report by Jacob Orr, Guaranteed Guide Service Lake Texoma. Hybrid stripers are excellent with limits coming on topwaters along the bank early in the morning watching for Egrets. Then switch to swimbaits on flats and points in 10-20 feet of water. Shad are spawning along the banks. Report by John Blasingame, Adventure Texoma Outdoors.
