Hey guys, me and a couple of buddies are going down this weekend to Lake Texoma for a guide striper bass outing.  However, the other 2 days we are fishing on our own and would like any advice or secrets you could PM me for LM and SM bass fishing.  Where are the spots we should try, baits that work down there, etc. Never been there before, so we are super excited to go!!! TY!!

What part of the lake will you be on? 

My boat will be launched from the Buncombe Marina each day, so the north side   Really don't know a whole lot about the lake yet. 

I would say just follow the guide boats. They will show you where the fish are. About a month ago they were hitting topwaters at dawn and dusk. We had some luck near Eisenhower bridge but that’s a bit away from buncombe. You should have some luck near washita point and patter flats as well. Hope this helps.

Thank you for the advice, I appreciate it!! 

I grew up on lake Texoma.  There's some good bass fishing North of Buncombe creek, a few creek arms/coves that used to hold some good fish.  Directly out from Buncombe is the OU biological station (West of the marina).  Used to be a lot of standing timber in that area.  Again, I've caught a lot of bass out of there.  The Limestone creek area (South of Buncombe creek) was also an outstanding area.  I've caught some really big fish at the back of Limestone creek and the point on the North side of the creek arm (standing timber again). We would always hit rocky shorelines early with topwater baits in the summer then work our way out into deeper water around standing timer/creek channels as the day went on.  Almost forgot, find lay downs on points.  That was our "go-to" pattern when all else failed.
