Fishing Report

Apr 10, 2024: GOOD. Water normal stain; 58 degrees; 1.75 feet below pool. Striped bass are great using live shad on anchor in 30-45 feet of water on steep bank ledges and points around creeks and rocks. The shad spawn will be happening in certain areas and lake wide over the next week. Topwaters and swimbaits will also work on the banks. Watch for herons and egrets along the banks. Crappie fishing is improving under docks and on submerged structures using electronics to locate active fish. Some crappie are still in the creeks and on structures and lay downs in 2-5 feet of water. Catfish are fair on cut shad in the Main lake river channels 50-60 feet of water and near the river inlets after the recent rains. Bass are good on live shad along the bluffs off the banks in 5-10 feet of water. Topwaters early and plastics late time of year. Check the wind blown points with small gravel and boulders. Report by Jacob Orr, Guaranteed Guide Service Lake Texoma. Hybrid stripers are good on the flats in 15 feet or less with swimbaits, or trolling. Expect the topwater and slab bite to heat up soon. Fish are at the peak to the end of the spawn. A few fish are schooling and the birds are starting to work. Report by John Blasingame, Adventure Texoma Outdoors.
