I have been guiding long enough (26 years) to realize when the times are great to fish. It all depends on the water temp and weather conditions. Normally the very best times are April to end of year and naturalky deoends on weather conditions ! Wind determines a lot about fishing, and if is during live bait seasons, warm months, it helps to be able to anchor in locations where fish are and out of winds. These are usually April to November. Unexpected serious weather conditions can hamper a entire fishing day. Just take this into consideration in booking your trips. At the time of this posts, fishing can be hit or miss, require a change in methods of fishing so book your trips accordingly! There are some days fish just dont bite, but on Lake Texoma these days are few and far between. Feel comfortable you have chosen the right guide and he has the potential and history of catching the fish for your group. I have a high success rate for catching fish and knowing where I have to be to make my customers hapoy with a great day if fishing. Lake Texoma is the “Striper Capital of the World”, mainly because their it has the higher possibility of allowing a guide to catch a limit per boat every trip. 10 fish per person. All you need to do is select the right guide for your trip. Although I am, yes, 80 years old, I work out daily, in days I am not booked for fishing. Yes I have an older boat 24 foot Offshore Triton with a new Yamaha, I get you to and on fish fast, in comfort. Call today and set up your Trip. JD
