Texoma 7/24 - 07/30/20 12:12 AM
Last week one of my good friends and I did our annual guys trip to catch some Texoma stripers. I lost a buddy bearing on my trailer on the way up. It broke off flush with the hub face so I couldn’t replace it. I finally found the right hub to replace it so we could get on the road. We had a cabin at little mineral marina and trolled umbrella rigs around grandpappys Thursday evening. Marked a few fish but only landed one about 19”. We decided to let it grow some more. After the mechnical issues earlier I was ready for what my buddy calls a “tea”. Crown and seven went down good after getting back to the cabin. We were at the dam at daybreak waiting for the topwater that never happened Friday morning. Went to tabletop with the boat show then to Preston point and found a good school. Landed two nice 20” + fish and watched a guy park on the exact spot we had hooked up. Being a nice guy I moved on and let him have them. Went to burns run that evening and caught a couple good fish on umbrella rigs. Saturday morning I met a fellow guide from Oklahoma at washita to deliver his new Bobo’s Thumper. I found some good fish on the sonar at the end of washita point slabbing, but those turned out to be bluecat and a 12 lb carp. We enjoyed our down time and companionship. Looking forward to next time.
