Fishing remains tough on Texoma. Striper is very hit or miss with far more misses currently. The lake is still 15 feet higher than normal and is very muddy across the entire lake. Catfish have been consistent in roughly 25 fow on cut bait. The lake is coming down slowly, but I am not expecting it to clean up until late summer, likely in to august.

Today was the first day for me to see the large top water action with some birds working as well. I had heard of some earlier this week but saw it today. Water temp is right around 60 and the striper are coming in to their spring routine. The next few weeks should be very strong with swim baits and maybe even throwing top water lures. Blue Cats are active and being caught in shallow water. We should have another week or two of shallow bite but they will be transitioning to deeper water soon. Nows the time to book!

Picture above from this morning. 12 pound striper 8 pound cat Fishing this week was tough with the winds but the big fish were aggressive early am all week. Multiple 10 pound plus stripers on top water in the first hour of each day. Slabs and sassy continued success once the sun was up. Lots of small fish on top water as well. Boat traffic on weekends makes the fishing much harder but weekdays were great! Catfish were very consistent all week with good eater cats. Didnt catch any over 20 pounds this week but lots of 5-10 pounders. 16-25 fow drifting flats near ledges. Striper fishing should continue to heat up even more as the temps start to come down… hopefully the temps come down! Until next time.
