"I have been wanting to fish Lake Texoma since reading about the blue catfish record being caught there about five years ago. My wife and I were scheduling a road trip over the summer to visit friends in Dallas.

"I finally was going to have a chance, Texoma is only about 2 hours from Dallas. I Hooked up with Trails Guide Service, a really good choice.

"The smaller of the two in the pictures I sent is over 30 pounds, the big one is 70 pounds. I lost count of how many fish we caught between five and 20 pounds.

"We were using live and cut shad. The big fish inhaled a whole, live, 13- inch shad."
