Free Fishing Days June 6 and 7

The Oklahoma Department of Wildlife Conservation announced that everyone can fish without a state fishing license June 6 and June 7 on Oklahoma’s Free Fishing Days.

While Free Fishing Days allows people to fish without having a state fishing license, anglers still must abide by all other fishing regulations including daily bag limits and size restrictions, wildlife officials said. And for people not familiar with fishing just yet, the department has a fishing resources page online.

Even though the outdoors are always open in Oklahoma, the Wildlife Department encourages everyone to heed health officials' recommendations for staying safe during the COVID-19 outbreak. For anglers, officials said it's easy to distance yourself from others by the length of an adult's fishing rod.

All of Lake Texoma is open for free fishing June 6, but free fishing will only apply to the Oklahoma portion of the lake June 7. Anglers must abide by all Texas fishing license and permit requirements when fishing the Texas portion of Lake Texoma on June 7.

Fishing Report from TPWD (May 14)

FAIR. Water stained; 65 degrees; 18.09 feet below pool. Channel and blue catfishing has fired off in the murky flooded waters of Lake Texoma. Flooded willows and rocks in 5-15 feet of water with prepared baits or shad for numbers and good size fish. The striper fishing is inconsistent, dependent on chasing the clear water and each other until things settle. The fish will also move up shallow and in to the trees if we continue to stay at these levels with warmer water temps. Clear water is key and we don’t have any of that right now.Report by Jacob Orr, Lake Texoma, Guaranteed Guide Service. The water clarity is super muddy with lots of floating debris. Check ramp status before heading out. Striped bass are hit-or-miss depending on the wind and the ability to find clean water. Target clear water with slabs and swimbaits. Shad are still spawning along the banks. Report by John Blasingame, Adventure Texoma Outdoors.
