Fishing Report for Lake Texoma's Transitioning Autumn Season

  • Resumen

  • As of September 23, 2024, Lake Texoma is offering some exciting fishing opportunities, despite the transitioning weather conditions.

    **Current Weather and Water Conditions:**
    The water temperature is around 75 degrees, with the lake level at 0.97 feet below pool. The water is stained, which can be beneficial for certain types of fishing. The air temperature is expected to be in the mid-70s to low 80s, with a gentle breeze of about 5-10 mph and no significant precipitation forecasted.

    **Fishing Spots and Recommendations:**
    - **Striped Bass:** Fishing for striped bass is good, with most catches in 30 feet of water or less. Use live shad on flats and across river channels. As the lake cools, look for fish to stack up on ledges. Big fish are scattered in shallow water during early mornings and late evenings. Topwaters in shallow water and slabs in deeper water are effective.
    - **Crappie:** Crappie fishing should improve as the water cools. Target fish suspended in brush in 12-15 feet of water using minnows and dark-colored jigs. Electronics can help locate active fish under docks midday.
    - **Catfish:** Catfishing remains great, with eater-size channels and blues biting on punch baits and cut shad. Target shallow humps and points in 15-25 feet of water. Bigger fish will be roaming the deeper flats as the thermocline disappears.
    - **Bass:** Bass fishing is slower due to the abundance of bait, but using hard baits early and plastics late on main lake points and 8-15 foot humps can yield results.

    **Tips from Local Anglers and Guides:**
    According to Jacob Orr of Guaranteed Guide Service, "Start looking for fish to stack up on ledges as the lake cools off. Big fish will be scattered in shallow water during early mornings and late evenings." John Blasingame of Adventure Texoma Outdoors suggests starting with topwaters in shallow water and gradually working out to deep water with slabs.

    **Best Times for Fishing:**
    Early mornings and late evenings are the best times to catch the bigger fish, especially for striped bass and catfish. For crappie, midday under docks can be productive.

    **Local Events and Regulations:**
    Remember to drain water from boats and onboard receptacles to prevent the spread of zebra mussels. There are no major local events or closures reported, but always check with local authorities for any updates on catch limits or restrictions. Additionally, help protect Lake Texoma by not releasing carp back into the water and reporting bighead and silver carp catches to the Oklahoma or Texas Wildlife Departments.

    With these conditions and tips, you're set for a productive and enjoyable day of fishing at Lake Texoma. Good luck on the water
