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 (Jul. 24)

GOOD. Water stained; 75 degrees; 1.76 feet above pool. Striped bass fishing is good fishing live bait along ledges and flats in 25-50 feet of water watching for schooling fish and birds working. Swimbaits and slabs are working along the banks early in the morning as well. Crappie are slow on jigs and minnows fishing brush piles in 15-25 feet of water. Fish are roaming near creeks and coves chasing small shad. Bass are slow on topwaters early along the bluffs and soft plastics in the backs of the coves midday. Fish off the banks in 10-15 feet of water midday using electronics to see active fish and bait. Catfishing is great using cut shad and punch bait in 10-20 feet of water on humps near the dam and down the bluffs. Small channel catfish and blue catfish are filling the coolers. Report by Jacob Orr, Guaranteed Guide Service Lake Texoma. Stripers are good with slabs fishing under the smaller topwater fish in 30-60 feet of water in the middle of the lake. Some anglers are landing catches with live bait and trolling. Report by John Blasingame, Adventure Texoma Outdoors.
