Stripers are Fat & Sassy on Lake Texoma

The weather forecast was for chilly rain and then more rain and some wind, but that didn’t deter Chris Carey, at Striper Express and his client, Paul Bandiera from Dallas TX.

Despite the cloudy overcast day, the stripers at Lake Texoma woke up hungry and Chris and the clients got into fish quickly on swimbaits. The morning continued to yield many fish plus 4 striped bass that weighed in excess of 10 pounds. This is a good day in the rain for sure! Fishing slowed a bit for an hour or so and t

Fishing Report from TPWD (Jun. 4)

FAIR. Water stained; 74 degrees; 12.08 feet above pool. Catfishing is still excellent using punch bait along rock banks for channel cats in 15-25 feet of water. Cut shad and whole shad on ledges in 30-45 feet of water for keeper blues and look for bigger fish in shallow creeks and coves. Striper fishing is very inconsistent with the current lake conditions. Top waters, swimbaits and live shad on humps and flats in 20-25 feet of water fishing any clear water you can find. Look for the lake to clear once they turn down the outflow. Report by Jacob Orr, Lake Texoma, Guaranteed Guide Service. Striped bass are hit-or-miss with slabs in 15-30 feet of water, with a better bite on live bait. Midlake to the dam water is clearing. Very little floating debris left on the lake. Channel catfish can be targeted around big rocks and drop-offs in 20-30 feet of water cut bait. Report by John Blasingame, Adventure Texoma Outdoors.
