Fishing Report for Lake Tenkiller, Oklahoma: Ideal Conditions, Steady Fish Activity
Published 1 year, 6 months ago
Description
As of October 17, 2024, here’s the latest fishing report for Lake Tenkiller in Oklahoma.
First off, the lake's elevation is currently 0.32 feet below normal, with a pool elevation of 631.68 feet. The water temperature is around 76°F, and the water is clear, making for ideal fishing conditions.
For today, the sunrise is at 7:34 AM, and the sunset will be at 6:43 PM. The weather is expected to be mild, perfect for a day out on the water.
Fish activity has been steady, especially for bass and crappie. Largemouth, smallmouth, and spotted bass are fair on crankbaits, jigs, spinnerbaits, and topwater lures around coves, docks, and shorelines. Black and white crappie are also biting well on hair jigs, tube jigs, and worms near brush structure, docks, and the main lake.
Catfish, including blue, channel, and flathead, are slow but can be caught using chicken liver, shad, and sunfish around channels, coves, and points.
If you're looking for hot spots, consider the areas around the Horseshoe Bend boat ramp and the tailwaters below Tenkiller Dam. The tailwaters are particularly good for rainbow trout, which are stocked regularly, and can be caught using in-line spinnerbaits, midges, nymphs, PowerBait, and worms.
For gear, stick with crankbaits, jigs, and spinnerbaits for bass, and hair jigs or tube jigs for crappie. For catfish, chicken liver and shad are your best bets.
Public access areas, including Tenkiller State Park and several private resorts, offer easy access to the shoreline. Remember, crappie must be at least 10 inches long, with a daily limit of 15 combined.
Enjoy your day on Lake Tenkiller
