Texoma this Saturday (Nov 13)

[jtexas]

Striper time! Plan to launch at Eisenhower Park at the crack 'o dawn & look for topwater action then head down to Table Top & the islands. I'll be on the lookout for diving birds & bending rods. Got a collection of slabs & sassy shads. My greatest fear is getting skunked; any advice? Walleyehead, you busy Saturday?

Fish alone. Noboby will know if you get skunked. Do you know that lake well?

I spent fri thru mon. with some friends from Kansas. We caught (6 of us) 276 "keepers".<br />Caney creek south...25-40ft. look for the gulls and fish with slabs "near", not "under" the gulls and pick up the bigger fish on the outer skirts of the huge schools.<br />We caught 21 fish over 10lbs..., alot of 5-8lb'ers, and the rest were the 1-3lb "eaters".<br />I would LOVE to help you out but I'm leaving tomarrow for NW Kansas for the Pheasant season opener...<br /><br />EDIT: We did catch a few on table top and some good sized ones near roads end, east of soldiers creek, in 10-12ft of water casting #9 shadraps.

thanks, kenny! that's two spots not mentioned on the 6OG site. Good luck with the birds! What do your best slabs look like, if you don't mind saying? <br /><br /><br />LOL, fatpratt, too late, already got a partner. I been up there a few times over the years including a couple guided trips. Come on up if you can - I expect we can find fish by following the boats & birds.

Walleyehed here, just getting ready to chase Pheasants in the am...<br />6OG don't come back west very far...if they make it to roads end, they covered some water.<br />Prune picker in Chart/wht works good, but I like the 4", 1-1/2oz. Buzz Bomb in Flame Chartreuse from Cabela's. Another "Go-to" bait is the Cabela's realimage jig-n-spoon in Nickel/neon green. 2oz. with that one seems to work quite well.<br />Too bad you ain't got NEXT weekend to play...<br />Sorry I couldn't be of more help.<br />Kenny
