October 21, 2003 - Texoma - Striper fishing at Lake Texoma is great! Gizzard and Threadfin shad are both producing limits of fish. On calm days, drifting in shallow water, 20-feet and less is working well. On windy days, anchor on ledges in about thirty-feet of water. Leader size should be less than 15 lb. test. Doc Walker July 10, 2003 - Texoma - Submitted by Doc Walker, Guide - We fished this morning. It was a topwater only trip and it turned out great. We caught fish up to 10 lbs. on saltwater series Storm Chug Bugs. Concentrate on the lower lake area. Work the baits with a fast steady retrieve. DO NOT set the hook when you see the fish boil at the lure, as you will often jerk the bait away from the fish. DO wait until you feel the strike to set the hook. Pencil Poppers and Near Nuthin style baits are also working well.
April 16, 2003 - Kaw - Mike Cook - Four Lake Guides - I fished Kaw over the weekend for crappie and bombed. It was a muddy mess. Fished El Dorado too and did very well on walleye again. Same pattern as before. Still only catching males. Mike
Jan. 26, 2003 - Pretty Water
Lake - Hello Angler, Tim Beatty - Tulsa, Ok. Jan. 10, 2003 - Arkansas River near Tusa - Thursday afternoon I caught 7 Sauger using jigs with white 2" curly tails or chartreuse Walleye Assassins. For a short time they were biting fast. On my fourth and fifth cast I caught fish. Another guy caught a small 2 lb wiper. I was told that a lot of large stripers and catfish are pulled out of the fast water below the spillway. There is a walkway across the river very near 31 street. You can fish either side of the river easily. Chris

by Doc Walker, Guide - Fall fishing is in full swing!
Fishing has been good to excellent on live shad and down-riggers.
We have been "chasing the birds" on the flats, as well
as anchoring on ledges. Fish quality has been good on some days
and onlly fair on others. Fish quality typically improves in
November and December. Also, duck season is just around the corner! August 16, 2002 - Texoma - Submitted by Doc Walker, Guide - The fish are on top everywhere! The only problem is, some of them are on the small side. However, Bruce Roth, a client and friend of mine from Wichita, KS, had our way with stripers on top on 8/13. We caught approximately 20 plus stripers, of which ten were nice keepers in the 18-22 inch range. We finished out our limit on down-riggers, running 30&35 feet with double jig rigs. Concentrate on the lower end of the Lake from Alberta Creek, south, and from the North Island, east. southernkguide@brightok.net June 26, 2002 - Texoma - Submitted by Doc Walker, Guide - We are in our typical summer pattern. Most of the fish are located in the central and southern areas of the Lake, (from the North Island east to the dam and from Alberta Creek south to the dam). We caught fish this morning on top-waters (salt-water series chug bugs) and finished up down-rigging with double-jig rigs running and 30 and 35 feet. When the fish are stacked up well, vertical spooning with Hopkins and babes spoons, 1.5-2 ounce produces fish quite well. The fishing is great, give us a call at 877-664-2208. southernokguide@brightok.net June 23, 2002 - Konawa - My friend and I were at Konawa lake at daybreak the 18th of July. Water Temp was 91 and we didn't expect much. We went home happy that day!!! WE each caught 20 sand bass and three nice Hybrid striper 2 around 5 pounds and one rounding 10. We used slabs and shad. Fishing may seem slow but its all about being there at the right time. Go catch the Big One. Chris Combs

April 20, 2002 - Grand Lake
- Jim , this is a photo of Dave and Don. We fished
April 20, 2002 - Grand Lake - We fished Grand Lake of the Cherokees on 4/18-19/02 from the Red 11 Port and NE down the lake (NE of Sailboat bridge). The black bass were very tough to find and to catch, but those that found the beds in 10' or less of water caught a few weighing 2-4 lb. Most of these were taken using bubble gum colored flukes, TX rigged, or small shad-sized fire-tiger crankbaits. The flukes had to be fished very, very slowly. We had no luck on black bass around the docks with plastics, cranks, nor with spinner baits. Bluegills were abundant against the rock cliffs near the Elk River Cafe using 1/8 oz. jigs and black twister tails. We saw a lot of folks catching crappie off of docks and near timber at the banks. Most of these were taken using blue and white and red and white tube jigs. The water temp. ran 68F in the coves to mostly 66F on the main lake. Winds were 15-25 MPH out of the south and it was cloudy to partly cloudy. Air temps were 70F-82F those days. Bruce Barrett April 15, 2002 - Grand Lake - From Martin Landing and Guide Service - Anglers who find the black bass are doing very well, but as always the ones who are not on the right pattern are not. Try Carolina rigging small green pumpkin lizards, burning small crankbaits or sight fishing with small while jigs for bedding fish. Fishing has been very good for spawning crappie, especially from mid-lake down. They are on the bank big time. There are still some white bass being caught in the upper rivers. March 24, 2002 - McGee Creek
- Chislom Trail Bass Club Fished Mcgee Creek on very
bad conditions But some angler found fish.. The club caught 54.64
lbs of fish in a one day outing March 6, 2002 - Ft. Cobb -
I would like to report that the fishing at Ft. Cobb
lake has went from one of the best kept secrets to a total waste
of time. There are NO bass left in the lake and once on the water
you have to fight off the personal water crafts long enough to
get a pole in the water. If you are thinking of fishing in Ft.
Cobb lake take it from someone who lives there. DON'T WASTE YOUR
TIME IT IS NOT WORTH IT.
Sept. 14, 2001 - Pine Creek
- I am a member of a small bass club here in Oklahoma,
and on September 8th & 9th, we had a tournament at Pine Creek.
We pre-fished on Friday, and did well, using white with gold
blade buzz baits early in the back cuts and creeks in shallow
water. Later we switched to white with a Ken Dixon Voice (405) 688-4277 Email krdixon@avaya.com June 3, 2001 - Keystone - Fishing on the north side is dead, shad ar plentiful, on the north side, sand bass are fair, blue cats are fair on cut shad....everything else is slow... May 5, 2001 - Newt Graham/Keystone --As an avid dam fisherman, I mostly fish below Keystone dam, so I went early this morning, and unfortunatly there wasn't any water being ran, so I packed up and headed for the Newt Graham lock and dam to try my luck, and I done alright, withiin 3 hours i had 3 nice blue cats caught on fresh cut, casting into the rip rap, 2 weighed around 20 lbs. apeice and one wiehged about 10... May 3, 2001 - Texoma --My
Dad (Larry) and I fished Texoma April 26 - 29. We caught a lot
of black bass (mostly spots and largemouth) and some nice stripers
too. The spots and largemouth were up in the shallows around
the docks on small lizards, tubes and straight worms on light
spinning tackle. The fish were from 2 - 5 Apr. 8, 2001 - Longmier --Slow
overall. Longmire is a small lake near Pauls Valley, OK. Read
about the lake June 1, 2000 - Great Salt Plains - Went down to fish the salt plains. Caught 27 in a couple of hours and then Ben had motor problems and we had to quit. Blow wind blow. Mike Cook - Four Lake Guides May 3, 2000 - Draper Lake - Submitted by TooRowdy29@aol.com - Me and my wife were out the other day on the east side by 104th St entrance and really got into a big mess of crappie. We went through about 3 dozen minnows in about 30 mins. Had about 40 keepers by the time we left. That's not including the small ones we threw back..I would say the crappie fishing is excellent. I'll send photos when they get developed. March 19, 2000 - Grand Lake - Submitted by Brant King - Conditions were as tough as the fishing. Rain, cold temperatures, wind and lack of sun made fishing difficult. The fish that had moved up the last couple weeks, didn't want to bite. Before the water dirtied up, good fish were being caught on rogues. Once the water dirtied, wiggle warts and 6A bomber produced best. Water temps were ranging in the mid 50's, but this past weekend, most had cooled off to the upper 40's in some places. We have 4 keepers on Sunday that weighed a little over 8 pounds. Not great, but at least we caught a few. We caught all of our fish on 45 degree chunk rock banks and bluff ends. I caught a 6 plus Saturday pre-fishing on a wart on a transition bank up the river, but it didn't help during the tournament Sunday! E-mail me if you have any question. lking@altamontks.com January 11, 2000 - Texoma - Submitted
by Jeff Forman The striper and white bass fishing here on
Lake Texoma has been fantastic lately! I just wanted to let you
know I now have a web page and a new e-mail address. May 1, 1999 - Ft. Gibson - Submitted by Timothy I was just reading your fishing report for Oklahoma last updated 4-27-99. The report says that Gibson is only 3 ft. above normal, but it is over 20 ft. above normal. The water is flooded up to about 10 - 20 ft away from the highway. All of the campgrounds and boat ramps are completely underwater. However, we were able to fish just off of the navigation channel into coal creek. The navigation channel seams to be around normal. We didn't catch anything, but the tip is that crappie are biting despite the poor weather conditions and high water. Source: Oklahoma Anglers like you. Send us a report. |
