GOOD. Water stained; 53 degrees; 0.05 feet above pool. Striper fishing is continuing to improve on artificials. Swimbaits and flukes are working on structures in 15-25 feet of water and in deep water along river ledges in 50-65 feet of water. Watch for gulls over the active fish in the early mornings and before dark. Watch for fish to feed hard with the north winds and fronts. Catfish are starting to gather on deep flats off the river channels and near the mouths of deep coves. It is trophy blue time of year on Texoma but the eater fish are still stacked up on deep water in ditches on cut shad in 35-55 feet of water. Crappie have moved out off secondary ledges and humps on structure and stumps in 18-25 feet of water. Jig color makes a difference depending on the weather and the day. Report by Jacob Orr, Lake Texoma, Guaranteed Guide Service. Stripers continue to be good with Alabama rigs or swimbaits. Box fish can be caught on structure and ledges in 12-25 feet of water, while bigger fish are in deep water in 40-75 feet of water. A splash motor or thumper will bring fish to the boat. Birds are working. Report by John Blasingame, Adventure Texoma Outdoors.
