Lake Texoma Fishing Guide Report

Pretty cool screen shot here on the Humminbird 2D. The left side of the screen is the old data, and the right side of the screen is new data coming in. On this day, I approached a flat off the river channel and saw some fish literally laying on the bottom. The gar I saw earlier that day were really shallow and in the same depth throughout the lake, so I knew it was not gar. The return didn't really have red heads like a catfish, so I stopped on them. I had the clients send down some dead sticks and told them bounce them like slabbing, and to knock these fish on the heads and wake them up.

Below is the lure, bouncing on the heads of the fish.



Below you can see the fish holding on the bottom. You can actually see what way they are facing by the small red head. Any redder and I might have passed them, as catfish, due to they have a very distinct red head and blob return on my unit.





below right you can see the school I found, lift off the bottom and start to feed on whatever color fluke or swimbait or Road Runner, we sent down. It was ciaos when they started to feed and they were huge fish.





Fishing has been plain hard. But if you keep after it for 4 to 6 hours, you can set the hook into an absolute beast of a fish and watch your line just peel off the spool. Its a battle all the way to the boat. Then when the fish sees the boat, another good hard run happens. Just plain fun.



Everyday has been different. The patterns are constantly changing on how they want the bait presented and even the color changes daily.
