Lake Texoma Fishing Report - Summer 2017




The Summer of 2017 has been a great fishing season. Only way to describe it, it has been above our expectations. Lots of fish and lots of happy fishers of all ages. We had a few celebrities to top it off. Randy White, NFL Hall of Fame Dallas Cowboy, Jimmy Houston, America’s Favorite Fisherman and Grady Spears famed Cowboy Cook.

Stripers have been good to excellent this week. Plenty of medium size to 2 to 3 pounders are surfacing every morning. You can load up on these fish with PopRs, Chug Bugs and 4 inch Coho soft plastics.
There are some magnum Texoma Sand Bass up to 3 pounds running in these schools.

The bigger stripers are holding on deep structure. Humps and river ledges. Stripers up to 12 pounds are common this week.
Hold on tight, these big ones are producing some vicious strikes and extreme fights! It's a blast!

The schools are beginning to move up on flats.
We vertically bump slabs or cast your soft plastics on the bottom in depths from 5-15 ft.

The stripers can surface anytime on the flats when they push the shad to the surface. Keep your top water rigged rods close and ready.

Now that school is starting, we had the lake to ourselves this week. It’s time to huddle up and plan your Fall fishing adventures. If you are looking for some great fishing, come to Lake Texoma and have some fun.

Fishing Report from TPWD (Sep. 17)

GOOD. Water stained; 84 degrees; 0.28 feet above pool. Striped bass fishing is up and down depending on the temperatures. Warmer days have the fish moving fast and surfacing on top early and late. Live bait and slabs are working on shallow flats and ledges off the main lake in 15-25 feet of water. Crappie are biting jigs or minnows on points with stumps and brush in 12-20 feet of water, or docks and shade in coves. Eater catfish are good on punch bait in 18-28 feet of water on flats and in the backs of ditches. Baited holes are producing numbers. Soon big blue catfish will roam the deep flats chasing big baits. Report by Jacob Orr, Lake Texoma, Guaranteed Guide Service. Stripers are hit-or-miss with the best bite on topwaters or slabs on flats in 10-20 feet of water or deep in 60 feet of water. Target structure and the ledges of drop-offs. Some anglers are using live bait or trolling. Fish should be moving shallow as the water begins to cool. Report by John Blasingame, Adventure Texoma Outdoors.
