We know Lake Texoma like the back of our hand, and we're itching to put you on the hottest bite. Whether you're a seasoned angler or just getting your feet wet, our expert guides will make sure you're in for a day of non-stop fishing fun. So grab your lucky hat and let's hit the water!
Here's the deal: we'll meet you bright and early at the marina, where your guide will be waiting with a fully-rigged boat and a game plan. We waste no time getting to the good stuff - we'll zip straight to the striper honey holes that are firing that day. Our local knowledge means we know exactly where those big boys are hiding. You'll be jigging, trolling, or live-baiting (whatever's working best) before you know it. And get this - once you've hit your limit, we keep the party going! You can keep casting from the slip while we clean your catch. It's like bonus fishing time, on the house!
Alright, let's talk tactics. We typically use a mix of techniques to get those stripers fired up. We might start off trolling with planer boards to cover some serious water. When we mark fish on the sonar, we'll switch to vertical jigging or dropping live bait. These stripers can be finicky, so we always come prepared with a variety of lures and baits. We're talking about big swimbaits, flukes, topwater plugs, and of course, fresh shad when we can get 'em. Don't sweat it if you're new to this - we'll show you the ropes and have you fishing like a pro in no time.
Listen, there's a reason Lake Texoma is known as the "Striper Capital of the World." The fishing here is just bonkers. We're talking about consistently landing 10-20 pound fish, with the chance at a true trophy in the 30-pound class. But it's not just about the size of the fish - it's the whole package. The lake is gorgeous, the action is fast, and there's nothing quite like feeling that first big striper smash your lure. Our repeat customers tell us they're hooked (pun intended) on the rush of battling these hard-fighting fish. Plus, they love taking home a cooler full of tasty fillets to show for their efforts.
Let's chat about our star of the show - the striped bass. These bad boys are like the linebackers of the fish world. They're big, they're mean, and they'll put up one heck of a fight. Stripers in Lake Texoma typically range from 5 to 20 pounds, but we see some real giants pushing 30+ pounds every season. They're schooling fish, so when you find 'em, you find a lot of 'em. Spring and fall are prime time for topwater action, while summer sees them hanging out in deeper, cooler water. What makes stripers so awesome to catch? It's all about that initial hit - when a big striper slams your lure, it feels like you've hooked a freight train. Plus, they're delicious on the grill, so you get the best of both worlds - an epic fight and a tasty dinner.
Look, we could go on all day about how awesome this trip is, but why not come see for yourself? For just $400 for two people (and $150 for each additional angler), you're getting a world-class fishing experience with guides who eat, sleep, and breathe Lake Texoma stripers.

Spots fill up fast, especially during peak seasons, so don't wait around. Give us a call or book online today, and get ready to make some serious fishing memories on Lake Texoma. Trust us, once you feel that first striper hit, you'll be planning your next trip before we even get back to the dock!
Striped bass are a real treat to chase on Lake Texoma. These powerful fish typically run 10-30 pounds but can get up to 50 pounds or more. You'll find them cruising near underwater structures or chasing schools of baitfish. Spring and fall are prime seasons, but we catch stripers year-round here. Folks love targeting stripers for their hard-fighting spirit - when one hits, you'll know it! They also make excellent eating if you want to keep a few. To boost your chances, try trolling with live shad or casting topwater lures early in the morning. One local trick: Keep an eye out for diving birds. That often means stripers are pushing bait to the surface. When you see that action, get ready for some fast-paced fishing! Whether you're after a trophy or just want to tangle with these bruisers, striped bass offer an exciting challenge for anglers of all skill levels.
