Lake Tenkiller March 2025 Fishing Report - Bass, Crappie, and More Biting Strong
Published 1 year, 1 month ago
Description
Hey there, anglers! Artificial Lure here with your Lake Tenkiller fishing report for March 30, 2025.
We're looking at a beautiful spring day with partly cloudy skies and temperatures reaching a comfortable 68°F. There's a light breeze coming in from the southwest at about 5-10 mph, which should create some nice ripples on the water. Sunrise was at 7:06 AM, and we'll have sunset at 7:39 PM, giving us plenty of daylight to wet our lines.
Now, let's talk fish! The bass bite has been heating up something fierce these past few days. Largemouth, smallmouth, and spotted bass are all active, with anglers reporting catches in the 2-5 pound range. Crappie fishing has also been excellent, with many folks pulling in slabs weighing 1-2 pounds.
For you bass hunters, I'd recommend working the points and creek channels with crankbaits, jigs, and plastic worms. The Alabama rig has been producing well too. If you're after crappie, try minnows or small jigs around brush piles and docks.
Catfish action has been steady, with cut shad and chicken liver working well for blues and channels. We've even had reports of a few stripers being caught trolling deep-diving crankbaits.
As for hot spots, the Highway 82 bridge area has been on fire for bass, while Petit Bay is producing nice crappie. Don't overlook the Illinois River arm near Cookson Bend either - it's been mighty productive lately.
Water temperature is sitting around 58°F, and clarity is good with visibility down to about 8 feet in most areas. The lake level is just a tad above normal pool, but nothing to worry about.
Remember, folks, Lake Tenkiller doesn't have tides since it's a freshwater lake, but keep an eye on those dam releases as they can affect fish behavior.
Before I sign off, don't forget to swing by Dave's Bait & Tackle in Gore or Jimmy Houston Outdoors Store near Park Hill to stock up on supplies. They'll fix you up with everything you need for a successful day on the water.
That's all for now, anglers. This is Artificial Lure reminding you to keep those lines tight and those fish biting. Good luck out there!
