Anchoring in deeper water for smaller fish on flats in 45-50 feet of water. Swimbaits and bucktail jigs are working on structure and points in 10-20 feet of water. Crappie fishing is good in the creeks and on shallow brush in warmer and dirtier water. Jigs under slip corks on any laydown from the bank or stick up in 1-5 feet of water. Catfish are slow on cut gizzard shad and prepared baits. Fish are still full on deep water shad but will start to fire up in the shallower water with the next rain. Bass are fair on white swimbaits along the bluffs in the backs of the coves and on gravel banks. Plastics 6-8 feet of water on main lake points and halfway back in the coves

Help Protect Lake Texoma from Invasive Species

Bighead and silver carp were first brought to the U.S. in 1973 and have since overtaken many Mississippi River drainage waterways. Anglers can help protect Lake Texoma waters from invasive species by not releasing carp back into the water and reporting bighead and silver carp catches to the Oklahoma Wildlife Department or the Texas Wildlife Department.
