dk44 I am not a guide on Texoma but I Have fished the lake alot..
he 1st thing I learned about bait fishing from J D lyle is a striper will not go down to get a bait the eyes are on top and tend to look up so if you are marking fish at a 30 ft stay a couple of feet above the fish, depth control is critical..
Hybrids do the same thing!
weight above swivel and then a 2 foot leader with a good sharp
hook!
remember the 2 foot of leader when you are droping to the depth.
I do not claim to be a great bait guru but thats what has worked for me!
good luck!
