The birds have been the best sonar on Lake Texoma, they know where the fish and hover above the schools of striper waiting patiently for the striper to feed and push bait to the top. Finding a feeding school can make for some epic fishing, and now the fishing is more epic than ever! You can throw top waters to busting shad or troll A rigs 30’ to catch the big fish that are feeding deep. This was one of the most epic trips ever! It started off bad, I was getting my spinning rods from my boat, tangled up in the electric cord and ended up dropping my boat and car keys in the lake! Fortunately, I was able to jump in Ed’s boat and catch plenty of big fish. We did not use the thumper or spinning rods with poppers (both locked in the boat) but I did hook 2 on the popper! You can maximize fishing under the birds using A Rigs, Sassy Shad or Thumping with slabs or bait.
Ed Musser from Ed’s Guide service specializes in trolling and we trolled Captain Mack’s A Rigs 30-35’ deep behind the boat under the birds and crushed the striper including a four over hook up and multiple double hook ups! We put some really nice fish in the boat and released several to fight another day!
