Lake Texoma Bass Fishing Report

Lake Texoma - An immense water playground spanning the Texas/Oklahoma border.

Located 75 miles north of Dallas and 121 south of Oklahoma City. Texoma is a power generation lake with 89,000 surface acres and hundreds of miles of shoreline.

To say the fishing is great on Lake Texoma would be an understatement. Black bass, sand bass (white bass), crappie, bluegill, and catfish (one Texoma blue cat weighed in at 118.5 lbs.) are abundant, but the king of the lake has to be the striper. Texoma is known for some of the best striper fishing in the Southwest.

"Sandies" (white bass) receive a lot of attention spring and summer. "Blacks" are pursued all year long!

The summer doldrums are over and the fishing has picked up.

Black Bass- Spinner baits and crankbaits are both producing. Work the shallower water early and move to 8-12 feet later in the day. Look for ledges with deeper water close by and points with cover and deeper water nearby.

Stripers- Striper fishing has been great. Sunset and Wilfa Woods in 70 feet of water will produce some keepers. Also around the dam area in 45-50 feet of water will produce a few. Smaller stripers are top water feeding early in the day.
