Crappie are still good on minnows but the jig bite is getting better every day in 8-20 feet of water on structure. Punch bait and cut shad are still the baits of choice. Water will start to cool off and the big catfish will move up in the shallower 5-10 feet of water range feeding on shad. Blue and channel catfish are still great for smaller eater size fish. Largemouth and smallmouth bass are getting better on soft plastics off the banks in 8-15 feet of water around drop-offs and structure. Fish are reacting well to splashing and commotion on the surface. Striped bass are excellent on live shad in 35-40 feet of water. Report by John Blasingame, Adventure Texoma Outdoors.

Please post your own stories of these ghost towns and any others submerged under Lake Texoma now.ĮXCELLENT. One time for about three weeks they stayed in that area but then they cleared on out without causing any kind of a problem here." "Bonnie and Clyde used to come to old Woodville to the chicken fights and they camped right over here in this area what's known as Washita Point.

Last summer a former Woodville resident is reported as sharing, It was reported to have had 360 residents in 1944 when it sank into an underwater ghost town. Lipscomb Wood, a prominent Chickasaw citizen at the time and a fitting tribute to what some have called the first town in Indian Territory. Woodville, Okalahoma was named after Judge L. Drought brought many grave stones out of the water and into the open in the summer of 2011 when lakes all over the state of Texas had water levels drop to unprecedented lows. Sadly, the railroad bypassed the thriving town of Cedar Mills as well, and there were only 50 residents reported in the 1930s, a few years before the whole place was flooded by Lake Texoma. Grain and lumber mills were built in the thick groves of cedar trees along the Red River, inspiring the name of the town and attracting commerce from farmers and lumbermen.Ī hotel and racetrack were built to accommodate all the local visitors when, by 1884 the population grew to 500. Cedar Mills, Texas was located twenty-four miles NW of Sherman, and it, too, saw settlers arrive in the 1870s. Hagerman's population was reported as 150 in the 1930s and 1940s until it became submerged in 1944, but Hagerman still showed up on a 1970 county highway map. James Hagerman was a railroad attorney at that time. Steedman, a respected county judge, it swelled in population from the 1870s, and then it changed names when the railroad came through in 1909. Hagerman, Texas was located on a spur off FM 1417 about eight miles NW of Sherman. Like so many other towns around the country, Preston suffered economically when the Missouri, Kansas & Texas railroad passed by to the east of town, cutting off business from travelers and cattle drives. The little town prospered in the 1800s due to its strategic location for military and trade roads. Preston, Texas, also known as Preston Bend was a prominent town located on the Red River in North Texas, ideally located and used as the Red River crossing of the Butterfield Stage Lines and the Shawnee cattle trail. A few towns, however, gave up their identities forever as lake waters submerged their boundaries and wiped them off the map. It forced relocation of railroads, highways, utilities, and cemeteries. In 1944 when Lake Texoma began filling up, it changed the landscape considerably, both in Oklahoma and in Texas. Under normal conditions there are 550 miles of shoreline on Lake Texoma, with the Red River arm (45 miles long) in Texas and the Washita arm (30 miles long) in Oklahoma, all of which covers 93,080 acres impounded by Denison Dam. But in 2011 the water levels were much lower, and some American history became exposed after many, many years.

Lake Texoma is only a couple feet below normal water levels after the hot, dry summer of 2012.
