  • Lake Texoma Fishing Forecast: Stripers, Cats, and More on Fire This February

    Lake Texoma Fishing Forecast: Stripers, Cats, and More on Fire This February
    Feb 8 2025
    Hello there, fellow anglers This is Artificial Lure, your go-to expert for all things fishing around Lake Texoma. As of today, February 8, 2025, the fishing scene here is nothing short of spectacular.

    First off, let's talk about the conditions. The pool elevation at Lake Texoma is currently at 614.9 feet, which is about 0.4 feet below normal. This slight drop in water level hasn't seemed to affect the fish activity much, as the lake is still 97.01% full in terms of its conservation pool[2].

    Weather-wise, it's a crisp winter morning with temperatures in the mid-40s to low 50s, perfect for a day out on the water. Sunrise was at around 7:15 AM, and we're expecting a sunset at about 5:45 PM, giving us a good long day to catch some serious fish.

    Now, onto the good stuff – the fish. Striper fishing continues to be phenomenal, with live shad producing limits of fish on points and humps in 25-40 feet of water. These stripers are actively feeding, making them easy targets for those using the right bait. Swim baits are also working wonders on shallow points and humps off creek ledges in 5-12 feet of water[1].

    Catfishing is another story altogether. With the cooler temps, catfish are thriving. Drift cut shad on deep flats off the river channels, particularly closer to the ends of the lake in 25-55 feet of water, and you'll likely find yourself reeling in some big ones. Eaters are plentiful along ledges and on flats in 40-50 feet of water, using cut shad and prepared baits[1].

    For those targeting other species, crappie fishing is looking good, with good odds of catching them. Largemouth and smallmouth bass are also active, though the odds are a bit more average this time of year[3].

    When it comes to lures and bait, live shad is the clear winner for stripers. For catfish, cut shad and prepared baits like chicken liver are your best bets. If you're after crappie, jigs and minnows are usually effective.

    Now, let's talk about some hot spots. If you're looking for a great place to catch stripers, head over to the Eisenhower State Park Bluffs on the Texas side or the Denison Dam. These areas are known for their abundant striper populations. On the Oklahoma side, North Island and West Burns Run are also top spots[5].

    In summary, Lake Texoma is offering some fantastic fishing opportunities right now. With the right bait and knowledge of the best spots, you're set for a day filled with action and hopefully, some impressive catches. So grab your gear, and let's get out there and make some memories on the water Tight lines, everyone

  • Texoma Fishing Report Feb 7 2025: Stripers, Crappie, Bass & Cats Bite Despite Colder Temps

    Texoma Fishing Report Feb 7 2025: Stripers, Crappie, Bass & Cats Bite Despite Colder Temps
    Feb 7 2025
    Hey there, fellow anglers This is Artificial Lure, and I'm here to give you the lowdown on the fishing scene at Lake Texoma as of February 7, 2025.

    First off, let's talk about the conditions. The water is stained, and the temperature is sitting at a chilly 48 degrees. The lake is currently 1.71 feet below pool, which can affect the fish behavior but also opens up some new spots to explore.

    For those targeting striped bass, the action has slowed down a bit due to the colder temps, but it's still worth the effort. Look for stripers on humps and structure in 10-30 feet of water off the river ledges. You can also find them in deeper water, around 55-75 feet, near bait balls. Alabama rigs or shad on structure in 15-25 feet of water are your best bets. When the bite on these rigs slows down, switch to deadsticking or using Alabama rigs in deeper water to catch the bigger fish.

    Crappie fishing is slower with the colder temperatures, but you can still find them in deeper water. On warmer days, they tend to move up shallower. Use small paddle tails and split-tail jigs, and slow down your presentation to increase your chances. Bass fishing, both largemouth and smallmouth, is also slower, but warmer days will see them moving up shallower to feed in the backs of coves and near main lake points. Target areas with brush and structure, and again, slow down your presentation.

    Catfishing remains on the slower side as well, but you can still catch bigger fish by drifting shallow water near creeks and coves in 12-25 feet of water using whole shad. Electronics can help you locate individual fish roaming the flats.

    Now, let's talk about some hot spots. The Washita River arm and the Red River arm are always good places to start, especially around the river ledges and humps. Another spot to check out is the area around Eisenhower State Park, where the structure and brush piles can hold a variety of species.

    In terms of lures and bait, for stripers, those Alabama rigs and shad are hard to beat. For crappie, those small paddle tails and split-tail jigs are your friends. For bass, use something that mimics a baitfish, like a crankbait or a soft plastic. And for catfish, live bait such as shad or chicken liver is always a winner.

    Sunrise today is at 7:16 AM, and sunset is at 5:38 PM, so plan your day accordingly. While Lake Texoma doesn't have tides like coastal areas, the solunar activity can still influence fish behavior. Today's solunar activity is average, but it's always a good idea to fish around sunrise and sunset when possible.

    Remember to drain the water from your boats and onboard receptacles to prevent the spread of zebra mussels, and always check the latest fishing regulations before you head out.

    That's it for now, folks. Stay warm, and tight lines

  • Lake Texoma Fishing Update February 2025 - Stripers, Bass, Crappie, and Catfish Action

    Lake Texoma Fishing Update February 2025 - Stripers, Bass, Crappie, and Catfish Action
    Feb 5 2025
    Hello there, fellow anglers This is Artificial Lure, your go-to expert for all things fishing, and I'm here to give you the lowdown on what's happening at Lake Texoma as of February 5, 2025.

    First off, let's talk about the conditions. The water temperature is currently around 48 degrees, which is a bit chilly, but that's not stopping the fish from biting. The water level is about 1.02 feet below pool, and it's stained, so visibility isn't the best. However, this can actually work in your favor, especially when targeting species like striped bass and catfish.

    ### Weather and Tidal Report
    Today, you can expect partly cloudy skies with a high of around 58 degrees and a low of 42 degrees. There's a gentle breeze out of the northwest, which can make for some excellent fishing conditions, especially for those targeting striped bass. Since Lake Texoma is a freshwater lake, we don't have to worry about tides, but the wind direction can still influence fish behavior.

    ### Sunrise and Sunset
    Sunrise is at about 7:15 AM, and sunset is around 5:45 PM. These times are crucial because they often mark the periods when fish are most active.

    ### Fish Activity
    Striper fishing is good right now, especially in deeper waters around 60-80 feet. Look for areas with bait fish, as stripers tend to congregate around these schools. Use flukes or swimbaits slow-rolled across the bottom on structure and humps in 15-35 feet of water. Alabama rigs with shad are also effective, particularly on main lake points and creek points[1][5].

    Bass fishing is a bit slower due to the cold water, but you can still catch them using soft plastics off main lake points and creek points. Focus on structures and flats with stumps in 8-12 feet of water. As the weather warms up, expect bass to move up shallower to feed in the backs of coves and near rocky points[1].

    Crappie are active in 18-25 feet of water near drop-offs and rocky points. Jigs tipped with a minnow and using electronics to locate active fish are your best bet[1].

    Catfishing is slow, but you can find bigger fish near the rivers and on shallow flats in 10-25 feet of water. Drift whole gizzard shad or use anchored setups casting off ledges and drop-offs[1].

    ### Best Lures and Bait
    For striped bass, flukes, swimbaits, and Alabama rigs with shad are top choices. When targeting bass, soft plastics like curly tail grubs or plastic worms work well. For crappie, jigs tipped with minnows are highly effective. Catfish can be caught using live shad, chicken liver, or cut bait[1][2][5].

    ### Hot Spots
    If you're looking for some hot spots, I recommend checking out the Eisenhower State Park Bluffs on the Texas side. This area is known for its excellent striper fishing, especially during the fall and spring. The point below Armadillo Hill is particularly good when there are northwest winds[3].

    Another great spot is Denison Dam, also on the Texas side. This area offers a mix of deep and shallow waters, making it ideal for targeting various species, including striped bass and catfish[3].

    In summary, Lake Texoma is offering some great fishing opportunities right now, despite the cooler water temperatures. Make sure to check the latest fishing regulations, as they can differ between the Oklahoma and Texas portions of the lake. With the right lures and knowledge of the best spots, you're set for a successful day on the water.

    Happy fishing, and see you out there
