February 2008


Fishing Saturday was excellent but Sunday was very bad. I have moved to the Lighthouse Marina. They have completed the new dock which will afford better facilities for my customers. The lodging is better, but I still have my trailer at Little Mineral Marina as a back up. Will attend the backwoods show in OKC this weekend, then back to fulfill all the promises I made at the show.

It is one week until Valentines Day and do you have that special someone something for Valentines Day? How about a great fishing adventure for that special someone. We have gift certificates that would make a great gift. Better yet surprise that special someone by whisking them away for a night in one of our rooms just the two of you and then have a fun day fishing.

  It has been several weeks since my last Lake Texoma fishing report. Our current lake level is at 614.40 with a water temperature of 44 degrees. I have had little success with lures this past month, an occasional decent day but nothing to really brag about. So back to bait fishing…. My preference this time of year is Gizzard Shad. although Threadfin Shad will work they seem to get weak after a couple of hours in the bait tank while the Gizzards are good and frisky.

Well here I am with JoLean sitting in a booth at Claremore Oklahoma, at a fishing/hunting show, advertising my business, wishing my ole buddies would call and book a fishing trip where I wouldn't have to go out and work so hard.   I have sat here for an hour and handed out 1 broshure, so guess these okies dont fish much.   There is no doubt I have lots of dates open, since a lot of my fishing friends thought I was done for after last fall….and I do mean fall.   But I am back, better than ever, working out with weights, doing 12 oz curls, well right now for instance.   I hope each of you are doing well, and getting plans together for that big time out on the water, with the #1 fishing guide at Texoma.   just has a good sound about it, dont it?    Let get that group together and go fishing, as I have bought a new house, and need the money!  Free lodging if you book within the next two weeks.   Give me a call…....JD
