Welcome
My name is Sterling Smith and I would like to be your striper fishing guide on beautiful Lake Texoma, "the striper capital of the world". I want to keep this site very simple, easy to use and informative, so please read on.
I fish one trip a day so we will fish for up to 5 hours. Bring the kids! I enjoy being around kids and watching them fight with stripers. It is a great way to interest your kids in a great outdoor experience and spend some quality time together out on the lake. Children under 12 fish for $40 each with paid adult!
I can fish up to 6 people in my 23 foot Falcon Striper Deluxe.
CORPORATE and FAMILY TRIPS are more than welcome! I will arrange for enough experienced guides and their boats to make the trip a good experience for your entire group. Just give me a phone call for group rates.
I clean and fillet your fish at the end of the trip. I provide freezer bags to store the fish for your trip back home. You will have some prep work left to do with the fillets, but I will show you how it is done.
Book a trip today and get your date reserved before it is gone. Booking a year in advance is not too early!
I have been a fisherman my entire life, but became addicted to striper fishing in 1999 when I fished Lake Texoma with a good friend of mine that had fished here for years. I have not fished on another lake since that day. I fished here as often as I could with dreams of making a permanent home here some day and that finally happened for me. I am a retired firefighter and love to take people fishing because I want to.....not because I have to. I am a "full time" guide and fish year round with many other experienced guides. We are all able to keep up with how the fish are working and where they are at for any given time of the year and share our information daily.
I live in the Caney/Soldier Creek area on the Oklahoma side of Lake Texoma. It is a very central location on the lake and easy to drive to from anywhere in the country. It makes a good starting point on most mornings without having to travel long distances across the lake to find fish.
We can now provide you lodging of our own, if you prefer. It can save you from having to find accomodations yourself. There is a "LODGING" tab at the top of the page where you can view it. It is for our customers or anybody just coming to Lake Texoma and wanting a fully furnished place to stay instead of a motel room. I will make recommendations to you on other places to stay overnight depending on where you are traveling from if can't fit your needs.

“Sterling
Just wanted to thanks for another great fishing trip. The first time I was down with the guys from work, fishing was tough, but you kept us on the fish until we got ours. Everyone had a great time. When I came down with my son and his friend, you set on the fish and made it look easy, thirty fish in no time. Thanks again for the great trips and the camaraderie. Hope to see you in October.

“Sterling, thank you so much for the wonderful fishing trip! All of us had a great time. It was well worth being out on the water by 6:00 a.m. We couldn't believe how fast the fish were biting!! Caleb says to look for us this winter, because he wants to catch some of the really big fish. We really enjoyed visiting with you. Thanks again, it was a trip we will never forget!
