Rain Forecast for Lake Texoma This Week




Just a heads-up for the rain and flood weary Texomans, and visitors missing their favorite lake...

The National Weather Service is forecasting rain from Tuesday through Thursday morning this week, in amounts between 2" - 5".

Although the crops and gardens could certainly use rain, the flooded lakes, rivers and tanks do NOT need more rain.

Flash flood warnings are predicted, as is river flooding. Use caution, once again, and don't take a chance driving into rising waters.

History buffs may enjoy scrolling through this 126-page report on the 1957 episodes of heavy rain and flooding, including Lake Texoma going over the spillway.  Many parts of the state of Texas were affected in 1957, just as they are in 2015.

Fishing Report from TPWD (May 21)

FAIR. Water stained; 65 degrees; 14.91 feet above pool. Striper fishing is still very hit-and-miss with the muddy water. Spend time looking for better conditions in the backs of coves and in the trees. Cast topwaters, swimbaits or live bait if you can locate clear water. Catfishing is excellent with the current conditions. Limits of channel catfish are possible with good pre-spawn fish mixed in. Target 20-30 feet of water with prepared baits anchored near the bottom along rock banks. Blue catfish will be up shallow in the backs of creeks and catchable from the banks on cut shad and prepared baits. Report by Jacob Orr, Lake Texoma, Guaranteed Guide Service. The water clarity is extremely muddy creating tough conditions for striped bass. Some stripers can be caught with live bait. Catfish can be targeted around big rocks and drop-offs with punch bait or cut shad. Report by John Blasingame, Adventure Texoma Outdoors. As we enjoy a weekend of fishing we salute and honor our Nation’s heroes this Memorial Day. Anticipate increased recreational boater traffic this weekend.
