Your guide will clue you in on reading the electronics, identifying key structure, and presenting your bait or lure for maximum effect. We'll cover everything from proper hook-setting technique to fighting big fish without losing them at the boat. This isn't just a fishing trip - it's a masterclass in striper fishing.
Striped Bass: Lake Texoma is world-renowned for its striped bass fishery, and for good reason. These hard-fighting fish can grow to impressive sizes here, with 20+ pounders not uncommon and the lake record standing at a whopping 35 pounds. Stripers are aggressive predators, often hunting in schools and crushing bait on the surface - a sight that'll get any angler's heart racing. They're most active in the cooler months, from fall through spring, but can be caught year-round with the right tactics. What makes stripers so exciting to target is their raw power and stamina. Hook into a big one, and you're in for a battle royale that'll test both your tackle and your skills.
Lake Texoma is a massive reservoir, spanning over 89,000 acres along the Texas-Oklahoma border. It's known for its clear, deep waters and abundant fish population. We'll be focusing on prime striper habitat - points, humps, and deep channels where these predators ambush their prey. Expect to cover a lot of water as we search for active fish. Some days, we might find them busting bait on the surface, creating those heart-pounding topwater blitzes that every angler dreams about. Other times, we'll need to work deeper structure, using our electronics to pinpoint schools of fish. The action can be fast and furious when we find them, so be ready!
There's something special about Lake Texoma that keeps seasoned anglers coming back year after year. Maybe it's the thrill of battling a 20-pound striper in open water.

Lake Texoma's stripers are a blast to chase. These powerful fish typically run 10-30 pounds, with some monsters pushing 40+. You'll find them hanging around underwater structure and chasing bait schools in open water. Spring and fall are prime, but we catch 'em year-round. Stripers put up an awesome fight - they'll test your arms and your gear. The meat's excellent too, mild and flaky. To improve your odds, pay attention to sudden jumps in surface activity. That usually means they're herding bait, so get ready to cast. One local trick: try slow-trolling live shad near creek mouths early in the morning. The stripers often stack up there to ambush bait as it moves out into the main lake.
