Lake Texoma Striper Fishing Blog

"Excellent" would be my word of choice to describe the striper fishing on Lake Texoma this past week.  We are still catching early limits of nice sized 17-19 inch box fish plus our over 20 inch stripers.  Most all of the fish have now finished the spawn, although we are still seeing a few with eggs.  Some of the larger stripers we have caught have been on the skinny side and a little beat up, which is normal for this time of year, coming off the spawn.  (Fish Love Hurts).  These fish will quickly fatten up in the weeks to follow. Other local guides that I have spoken to agree fishing doesn't get any better than it is right now.

Striper action this week is about as good as it gets. We have been catching early limits of nice box fish – 17" to 19" plus our over 20" Lake Texoma stripers.

  I'm still fishing live bait as that is what the stripers are keyed in on. I have also caught some slab and topwater stripers this week which goes to show that the Lake Texoma stripers are on the feed and very agressive about it. Right now it seems that everywhere I look I find good sized schools of stripers.

With the arrival of May the arrival of one rod fishing has come. The past week's striper fishing on Lake Texoma has definitely been the best of the year.   I have spoken to several other guides who all agree that fishing is at a peak right now.   Fish are grouped up in good schools and on the feed.

The weather has been the pits, but I have been fishing steadily through it all.  I have been fishing with other guides on big trips, and the catching has been very good.   I have lots of my own trips, doubles on every weekend, but have not gotten any pictures from my customers who are to send me some shots taken while on the boat, in action.    I have lots of trips booked, most saturdays booked, with a few Sundays left, and good choice dates during the week.    The fishing this weekend, was like what we expect in July.   The fish were so thick, we could have slabbed them.     Finished all trips with good fish, and fast action.
