This is personally extremely exciting for me to have caught this rare catfish. The colors were a absolutely beautiful deep black  and pearlescent white.  I came to find out after a few phone calls that this type of color pattern on a catfish is not extremely uncommon, but still nevertheless it is rarely seen in the wild.

I called our local parks and wildlife biologist  Bruce Hysmith to come down and be witness to this strange catch. I tried to donate the fish to Texas Parks and Wildlife, Bass Pro Shops, and Cabelas. I found out that in captivity the Catfish will change back to normal colors. After a few photos I  decided to return  this oddity back to the bountiful and surprising waters of Lake Texoma.

This video was shot during the late summer on Lake Texoma.

It was a beautiful summer evening when I found myself in the midst of a huge school of  Texoma Striper during a feeding frenzy. If you watch the video, you’ll see hundreds of striped bass busting the top of the water. You would be hard pressed to find a more exciting fishing experience on Lake Texoma.

What we are seeing here is a school of striped bass as they have surrounded a school of gizzard shad. It’s actually quite amazing to watch the predator/prey scenario play out. As far as top water action on Lake Texoma, it doesn’t get any better than this!
