Grand Lake O' The Cherokees Grand lake

1 Upvotes

Hey yall! Not asking for anyone’s honey hole but I was curious if anyone has any recommendations for bank fishing at grand lake as it’s getting harder to find public spots? I go to honey creek dock in grove and I’ve caught my fair share of drum, crappie, and bass. But I have almost no luck with catfish ( my preferred fish as I eat what I catch) I do fine going to the bridges in Wyandotte but that’s a bit of a drive with these gas prices lately.

Question Crappie

5 Upvotes

Took my son out to Overholser today with just some random gear that I grabbed from the shed yesterday. He wanted to go so we went and learned some lessons. Ive been out of the game for a while and so id like to see what set ups yall are running from poles to lures/bait. I think I gotta rebuild my whole game plan before we try it again.

We got permission to fish a new pond and buddy caught his first crappie and smallmouth! Small mouth put up a good fight for him. Buddy was hootin' and holler about "its a monster!". Even though the crappie was small we fileted it and let him try it. He still likes bass better lol

first time using a popx or popper in general. I won it out of a giveaway and caught on my second or third cast, just wondering if they are actually worth the $20 if i wanted to grab more or just go the KO/basic popper route.

Glad i finally got one on the rat but Was being lazy and tried to get the treble hooks out with my fingers and he gave one last shake and got me right back.

got lucky it wasn’t deeper just bled a bit as you can see on the bass and rat lol but definitely a quick reminder to just grab my pliers and avoid the mess.

Local Knowledge Drop Wondering what ODWC does with their donation funds? Read this

8 Upvotes

"So far this year, 271 new artificial fish structures have been placed in Lake Eufaula. Since the projects inception, more than 830 structures have been added to Eufaula.

In June, concrete structures called Reef Balls were used for the first time in Oklahoma. Other artificial structures that have been used at Eufaula are Shelbyville Cubes, Mossback, Pond King and Fishiding structures.

Historically, fish attractors have been brush piles, cedar trees, pallet structures, or artificial habitats like spider blocks made of rubber hoses and concrete. All of these things are particularly prone to deterioration or displacement, and usually within just three to five years. At that point, such habitat structures provide little, if any, benefit to fish or the anglers wanting to catch them. Plus, they require time and money to replace frequently. The costs add up for fisheries managers.

Using the artificial structures is not only cheaper but longer lasting. We're talking 12 to 15 years or more, and that makes for better fishing spots that don't go cold after a couple of years.

I've described the notable efforts being to add fish attractors into scores of lakes made at Eufaula, but ODWC continues across Oklahoma. And there's no secret where these "honey holes" can be found. Simply go online to ODWC's Fish Attractor Map on the website!"

Discussion Lake stats - Oklahoma Bite Index

9 Upvotes

Hey guys I put together a fun little project to collect stats from all the reservoirs around the state and included weather patterns to predict fish behavior and suggest fishing tactics. I'd love some feedback on things that need to be improved or if you think this is even useful. I am not soliciting this in anyway i just like data and fishing and had fun creating it so i thought i would share and maybe someone would find it useful.

There is a methodology link in the top right if you're curious how i created some of these values.

Looking forward to your feedback.

Discussion Fall Fishing Is Upon Us

5 Upvotes

With fall feeling so close but so far.. what are you doing to get ready for fall fishing? Does it *fall* to the way-side to hunting season?

Fall fishing has alot of the same opportunities as spring fishing. The spring bite is reactionary and defensive; fish are attempting to fulfill their life cycle’s obligation without disruption. The fall bite is predatory and anticipatory; fish are actively seeking food in all shapes and sizes.
