Captain Jerry is the owner and sole operator of Starkey Outdoors. He lives on Lake Oologah and considers it his home lake. Knows it like no other. It's said that Lake Oologah has more paddlefish/spoonbill than any other lake in the world. So naturally he specializes in paddlefish. However big blue cats are his passion as well as hybrid white bass and saugeye. He also guides in Alaska and has plenty of stories to share about his adventures up there. All his trips are guaranteed to catch fish.

    Great trip, tags filled and Jerry was very personable. First time paddlefishing was a success. Captain Jerry kept things entertaining between fish. This trip was a great experience and i would recommend everyone to use captain Jerry. after we tagged out on paddle fish, captain Jerry used the scraps from the paddle fish as catfish bait and took us catfising! 10/10

    Jerry Starkly is competent & friendly

    Half Day Trip – Paddlefish (PM) • 2 adults

    Jerry was on time, friendly & put us on fish for the entire afternoon. I am a disabled Vet. Jerry was observing & always ready to help if I needed it. He allowed me to do as much as I wanted or could before lending a hand. After taking our paddlefish, he spent the next couple hours catching a half dozen catfish. He is an easy conversationalist.

    Great father-daughter fishing trip!

    Half Day Trip – Paddlefish (PM) • 2 adults

    I contacted Captain Jerry after watching some of his Youtube videos. He was quick to respond to my inquiry and spent time on the phone answering my questions and letting me know what to expect…we had never gone fishing for paddlefish before. Jerry had the boat ready to go as soon as we arrived. He worked hard to find the fish and we caught some huge ones. My daughter and I had a great day. I will contact Jerry again the next time I go fishing in Oklahoma!

    Response from Captain

    Thank you. Great people.
