Texoma is six and a half feet over normal elevation for this time of year. The lake is stained to muddy on the upper river ends. The Corps is dropping the lake six inches a day.

Catching limits of stripers finally came back after twenty days of very slow fishing. Three boats came in today with the allowed 120 stripers to 8.5 pounds.  They were caught in 10 to 25 feet of water drifting shiners 3 feet off the bottom.

Maybe this is the start of our great pre-spawn fishing I have been predicting ever since the freeze back in January.  Have fun, stay safe and enjoy the lake.
