Fishing Forecast for Lake Texoma: Promising Conditions for Striped Bass, Bass, and Crappie
As of October 3, 2024, the fishing scene at Lake Texoma is looking promising, especially with the cooler weather setting in. The water level is currently at 1.37 feet below pool, and the surface temperature is around 75 degrees, with the water slightly stained.
The weather today is expected to be partly sunny with a high of 82 degrees and a low of 64 degrees, making it an ideal day to be out on the water. Sunrise was at 7:24 AM, and sunset will be at 7:04 PM, giving you ample time to catch the early morning and late evening bites.
Yesterday's fishing was excellent, particularly for striped bass. These fish are schooled up and moving fast near the river channels and shallow flats. Early morning topwater action was thrilling, with big stripers exploding on surface lures. As the sun rises, switching to slabs in 25 feet or less of water proved effective. Live shad and cut shad were also successful baits, especially on the flats and across the river channels.
For striped bass, start your day with topwaters in shallow water, targeting areas where fish have been staging each morning. As the day progresses, move out to deeper water with slabs. The upcoming cold front and rain will only enhance this pattern, so be prepared for some exciting surface action.
Bass fishing, although slower due to the abundance of shad, can still yield results. Look for bass around boulders and shaded banks in 8-12 feet of water, using hard baits early and plastics later in the day.
Hot spots include the areas near the railroad bridge and the north end of the lake, where striped bass are schooling up. The tributaries and creeks are also new territories where these fish are being found. For bass, focus on main lake points and sand flats, particularly near rocky points.
If you're looking to catch crappie, target brush piles in 7-25 feet of water using minnows and small chartreuse jigs.
Overall, it's a great time to be fishing at Lake Texoma, with plenty of opportunities to land big fish. Just remember to be stealthy, especially during the week when lake traffic is lighter, to maximize your chances of a successful day.
