Weather real chilly, but light winds making a great day for fishing Lake Texoma . Very few Guides out but I have been busy catching stripers trolling. I make my own jigs and vivid colors, yellow, white; order the frames which hold 9 jigs and catching multiple fish and big fish. My business catching on even during winter and Christmas, and booked some 3 or 4 trips per week . If trolling don’t work I carry plenty live bait just in case. When I find fish I remain in same area for awhile and then they move on and I

Fishing really picking up with cooler weather. Kids back in school, business slowed a bunch. I have been catching fish on bait and trolling. Big fish on umbrella rigs and lots fish on bait. I sometimes do both to get a limit of both. Big fish only 2 over 20 inches per person, 10 fish total per customer.
Time to book before cold weather hits in December. Good fishing most time in year and slows down when it gets hot. Water temp 60 degrees fish go crazy and this is usually Feb to April. Lots real big fish now and...

July 2022 has had its ups and downs, sound like....fishing? The heat has been like any other, in July, hot and dry. Don't plan on a limit of fish, as if you got 20 plus fish you had a good day. Someone will always argue with me but the majority had tough days, plenty big fish, but a limit takes lot of patience. I have had good days and tough days but still love my customers as they all know the up and downs. Most enjoy being on the water more than catching a limit! I have used trolling when...

I have used trolling when bait was not working; and bait when trolling was not working. I am using slabs, Arigs, whatever they will hit, bite.

Fishing on Lake Texoma, past several days. I had the large stripers located while trolling, but suddenly fishing changed and I went to live bait. Changes like this costs at least one day of poor results but I expect that, and change before poor fishing continues. Getting bait at 3:30 am is not my favorite thing to do, but it worked out great, and on to fabulous catch's. I was quite surprised by the large size of fish caught on bait, but great feeling to be back on track with striper limits!

10 fish per person, 2 over 20 inches. I will be on live bait now through most fall, and until fishing slows for winter, December. Most my weekends remain booked but. Lots
Mondays thru Fridays dates open. Call for that special trip on Lake Texoma.

    We had the BEST time thermal hog hunting with Joe and Jeff from Captain Experiences. The guys were super nice and patient with us as it was our first time hunting. They gave great instruction, were encouraging, and a lot of fun to hang with. They showed up on time and gave us extra time in the end. They seemed to have a great time as well. Everyone in my group was provided a gun with a super cool thermal scope. The AR-15s were set up on a stand for us and we had lots of opportunities to aim and shoot. This was our first time hunting but it definitely will not be our last. It was SOOOO much fun! I highly recommend it!
