Thread: LAKE TEXOMA archives

Fished Texoma today. My first boat trip since surgery. It was great getting on the water and I had no problems with discomfort. The fishing on the other hand left some to be desired. Fished deep, fished shallow, fished inbetween. Marked lots of fish but couldn't get a bite. Water temp was a steady 59 degrees. Murky water with approximately 1 foot visibility or less. It was great getting off the couch.

Just one that was exceptional today. Others were just average

Caught 13 yesterday morning in less than a foot of water up on the north end also called the game warden from Bryan county and he said widow Moore was open going there tommorw

Thanks for the report. I figured it was about time they started moving in. Were they males? I haven't been down in a couple of weeks. Sounds like it may be getting close to stocking the freezer.

8 males 3 females fix in to head out going to widow Moore today normally don't fish on the weekends see how it goes.

I am going out tomorrow on Texoma for a little exploratory fishing. I can't get any one to go with me so I guess it's a solo trip again. I have caught a few lately with lots of color to them in shallow water but no evidence of fanning on the tail at all so I am thinking I should be able to find fish near spawning areas assuming today's storms have not pushed them back to much.

While walking the bank lately I have noticed lots of shad in shallow water. I am not sure what that means if it means anything at all just something I noticed. I don't really have anyone to discuss it with as all my fishing buddies are much older than me and all are having serious health issues these days. I guess I need to start canvassing for a new fishing partner.

I have also noticed that except for bass tournaments there are very few people fishing my end of Texoma. In the last 4 days I have not personally seen anyone else crappie fishing Texoma. That does not mean that no one is it just means that I have not seen any. On the other hand it is rare that I see anyone not in my boat crappie fishing Texoma unless I go up to Widow Moore.

Unless you have very small feet that is a real good one.! Good picture too.

This morning was a bust. I didn't fish long. It was just cool enough to make my back hurt so I had to come home waaay to early to take a pill. I would have stayed with it longer but not having a fishing partner I can't take any chances. Being as I have hundreds of fish pictures I will post a legacy pick of one of my buddies.
