If you want to enjoy an exceptional fishing adventure on Lake Texoma, consider booking with seasoned angler Steve. With extensive knowledge and experience on the lake, Steve offers anglers a day to remember at one of the state’s premier fishing destinations. Operating from a 24-foot Blazer Bay boat, he ensures you have all the necessary gear, bait, and equipment to make your fishing trip a success. The boat comfortably fits up to 6 guests, and for larger groups, Steve is happy to arrange accommodations that suit your party size. A fantastic outing with a friendly guide who knows the lake well—and plenty of fish to show for it.
You can cancel without any charges up to 72 hours prior to your scheduled trip and the amount will be refunded as account credit. Cancellations made less than 3 days before the trip will result in losing the deposit paid to the guide. If you cancel on the day of the trip or fail to show up, the full trip cost will be billed to your payment method.
All essentials are provided, however, we suggest packing sunglasses, sunscreen, suitable attire for the weather, and any personal items you may need during the trip.
Spend a morning or afternoon on Lake Texoma with Captain Steve, a seasoned local guide who has decades of experience fishing for Stripers and sharing his passion with anglers of all skill levels. These half-day excursions, lasting between 4 to 6 hours, offer an ideal chance to enjoy the lake’s beauty and target some of its favorite sportfish without the need for a full day commitment.
Fishing takes place aboard Captain Steve’s 24-foot bay boat, which comfortably accommodates up to six passengers. The vessel is fully outfitted for a successful outing, featuring GPS, a fishfinder, Garmin LiveScope technology, a 50-gallon live bait tank, and a wireless trolling motor. The boat is clean, stable, and ready to depart upon your arrival—with fresh live Threadfin or Gizzard Shad bait caught by Captain Steve just before your trip.
The primary focus is on catching Striped Bass, prized for their strong fights and excellent taste. Depending on the season and conditions, you may also catch White Bass or Smallmouth Bass. Fishing techniques vary and include light tackle presentations, Carolina rig bottom fishing, jigging with slabs or spoons, topwater popping, and drifting—each adjusted daily based on what’s most effective. Captain Steve supplies all rods and gear, which consist of 7-foot medium-heavy baitcasting or spinning setups.
At the conclusion of your trip, your catch will be cleaned and packed at the dock. This service is included in the price, so you’ll leave with fresh fish fillets ready to cook.
All tackle, bait, and lures are provided. Just bring a valid Lake Texoma fishing license, sun protection (preferably non-spray sunscreen), along with any snacks or beverages you like. Kids are welcome on board, and if you require child-sized life jackets, please request them in advance or bring your own to ensure proper fit and comfort.
Whether introducing someone new to fishing or simply enjoying a relaxing day pursuing Stripers with an experienced guide, Captain Steve’s half-day trips deliver a flexible, enjoyable way to experience Lake Texoma.
