I'm looking to get out on the water this weekend for the first time this year. I'm after stripers/hybrids and not too interested in running way up creeks for sandbass. I know these three lakes the best. Which one should I fish this weekend? Any help is much appreciated.

If it's any help, a lot of Texoma guides are fishing Tawakoni.

Thanks guys... I haven't been following Texoma for the last few months. I didn't realize its been that tough.
I'd like to think this warmer weather would get Tawakoni turned around.
Anybody done well at Whitney?

Dont't know if this helps but I fished Whitney Friday afternoon and Saturday morning. Did not make the run up river fished the main lake. Caught 8 up to 25 inches Friday all in 30-35 fow all on the ridge in front of Walling Bend Park. Sat morning caught two in front of State Park and 6 more back in front of Walling. The fish are very scattered on the main lake. Only found on school and caught 3 out of it. The rest were loners. Did have one big fish Sat about 10 lbs. Its tough but if you move alot you can find a few. Also fished Whitney creek all the way to the back and nada

I promised that I'd report back...
Fished from 10:00am to 3:00pm, but wasn't too terribly mad at them. Spent a lot of time cruising around and enjoying the weather. We managed 12 hybrids and one sandbass. All caught in open water.
I never ventured back into any creeks... I'm sure there are a lot of fish back there.
Thanks to all for the help.

I avoid Texoma until April. Take a long long time for the Big lake to warm up but when it does its super. Monitor the Six Ole Geezers website and save some vacation days.
