    Default Texoma

Size:  32.9 KB Made like a duck yesterday and headed south to avoid the weather. Have never fished Texoma before (its a 3 hour drive for me). I was hoping to get in on some spawning fish but I could not find any shallow. Started off early in some promising looking coves that had great cover but no shallow fish that I could find. Backed out to 12-15 foot deep and started picking them up on and around stumps and brush piles. Most fish were stuck right on the bottom and you had to hold it there it front of them for a while to get them to bite. Jigs out fished minnows 3 to 1. I used 1/4 ounce weedless TT jigs with pink/black and chart/black big slab slayers. Water vis was 6-10 inches. I think that is a bit off color for Texoma from what I understand. Once I started fishing slower I really started to pick them up. Ended up with around 25 fish, which wasn't too bad for spending 2 hours fishing shallow and having to search to find piles and stumps. Lake is pretty well brushed up in the part I was fishing, there must be some people that frequently put brush out. Didn't see anyone crappie fishing and the boat traffic was minimal. Only a few males were just starting to get a little bit dark on the tails so I dont think the spawn is going yet in the part of the lake I was in. Caught some decent fish, the one in the pic was biggest at 1.9lbs. Beautiful overcast day with mostly light winds and air temp in the upper 60's, water temp upper 50's (sorry Geezers!) Rain didn't start till 4 pm, when it did, I high tailed it back home. If I go back I think I will have to spend the night. 6 hours driving and 8 hours fishing is not a great ratio.

    That's some BIG water crappies. I wish I was only 3 hours away from Texoma... Thanks for the report.

    Knowing you, I have to believe that you are VERY lucky every day. It won't long, and Darlene and I will be using those spoons up in Montana, hammering the trout.
