Lake Texoma's reputation as a striper fishing mecca isn't just hype – it's the real deal. Anglers from all over flock here for a shot at landing trophy-sized striped bass, and Captain Johny's trips consistently deliver the goods. The lake's unique ecosystem, with its perfect mix of forage fish and optimal water conditions, grows some absolute bruiser stripers. It's not uncommon to hook into 10-20 pound fish, with the potential for even bigger catches lurking in the depths. But it's not just about the size of the fish – it's the whole package. The rush of battling a hard-fighting striper, the camaraderie of sharing the boat with fellow anglers, and the pure joy of being out on the water all combine to create an experience that keeps folks coming back year after year.
Striped Bass: The star of the show on Lake Texoma, stripers are like underwater freight trains. These powerful fish can grow to impressive sizes, with 20-30 pounders not out of the question. Stripers are known for their aggressive strikes and bulldog-like fights, often making blistering runs that'll have your drag screaming. They school up, following massive bait balls of shad, which means when you find them, the action can be fast and furious. Spring and fall are prime times for big numbers, but summer can produce some giants if you know where to look (and Captain Johny does). The thrill of battling a big striper on light tackle is something every angler should experience.
White Bass: While stripers are the main target, don't sleep on their smaller cousins, the white bass. These feisty fighters often mix in with the stripers and can provide non-stop action when they're on the bite. They might not reach the massive sizes of stripers, but what they lack in size they make up for in numbers and aggression. A school of white bass can keep your rod bent all morning long, and they're excellent eating too. Captain Johny can show you how to target these scrappy fighters, which often hit smaller lures with reckless abandon.
Catfish: Though not the primary target on this trip, Lake Texoma is also home to some impressive catfish. Blue cats and channel cats prowl the lake's depths, and it's not uncommon to hook into one while fishing for stripers. These whiskered giants can reach some impressive sizes, with blues over 50 pounds possible. If you happen to hook into a big cat, get ready for a test of strength as these bottom-dwellers use every ounce of their weight to resist coming to the boat.

Striped bass are the big dogs of Lake Texoma. These powerful fish typically run 10-30 pounds but can top 50. You'll find them cruising open water or hanging near underwater structure, always on the hunt. Spring and fall are prime times, but we catch 'em year-round. Stripers put up one heck of a fight - get ready for screaming reels and aching arms. They're also fantastic eating if you want to keep a few. Most folks love the thrill of battling these bruisers, though. We usually target them with live bait like shad, but artificials work too. One local trick: Watch for diving birds to find feeding schools. When you see that, it's game on. Get ready to drop lines and hold on tight. These fish move around a lot chasing bait, so having a guide who knows their habits is key. We'll put you on the fish and show you how it's done. Just be warned - striper fishing gets addictive fast!
