Texoma Update

Posted by ken on October 19, 2016

With the Ram Series coming to Texoma in a couple weeks I know a lot of guys will be heading that way soon. I spent the weekend up there and the fishing was pretty good. Water temp 68-72, which should trigger the topwater bite but I could not get one going. I was catching most of my fish on chunk rock banks where they start flattening out, and a good number of schoolers on sand drop points. Especially anywhere the wind was making a current. My go to baits were the Crush Mini25 mostly in the Citrus Shad color and on a hard head, however I have found trying both that I get more bites throwing an old school Yamamoto Hula Grub, the big one (5") on a 3/4 ounce head. I have trouble getting a hook in a lot of fish with the Biffle Bug, and I don't have that problem and think i may actually get more bites on the Hula. Been sticking with really subtle colors, mostly a couple variations of watermelon. The summer boat traffic is almost gone up there so the fishing is about to get good!
