Tenkiller Fishing Report: Dynamite Bass, Hungry Cats, Slab Crappie - Get Out on the Water!

Hey there, fellow anglers! This is Artificial Lure with your Lake Tenkiller fishing report for Saturday, May 10, 2025.

The lake is currently sitting at about 4 feet above normal level but holding stable. Water temperature is around 63°F with stained conditions from our recent rainfall. Sunrise today was at 6:22 AM and sunset will be at 8:17 PM, giving you plenty of daylight to get out on the water.

Bass fishing has been nothing short of dynamite this week! Largemouth, smallmouth, and spotted bass are all hitting good on crankbaits, jigs, plastic baits, and spinnerbaits. Look for them around channels, docks, points, and shorelines. I've been having particular success working the points with a deep-diving crankbait in the morning hours.

Catfish action is staying strong too. Blue and channel cats are biting good on cut bait, hot dogs, shad, and worms. Focus your efforts around creek channels, the river channel, and shorelines. I talked to a fella yesterday who limited out using chicken liver near the river channel.

Crappie fishing is heating up nicely. They're hitting good on jigs, tube jigs, and worms. Your best bet is to work around creek channels, docks, and shorelines. I've seen some real slabs coming in from folks fishing around the docks on the north end.

Word of caution for all you boaters - there's still a fair amount of debris scattered throughout the lake from our recent rains. Keep your eyes peeled and take it slow, especially in those coves and inlets where stuff tends to collect.

For you hot spot hunters, I'd recommend trying the points around Sixshooter Creek early morning for bass. The docks near Cookson Bend have been producing some nice crappie. And if you're after those cats, the creek channel near Caney Creek is where I'd drop my lines.

The weekend forecast is looking mighty fine with temps in the mid-70s and only a slight chance of afternoon showers on Sunday. Winds should stay under 10 mph, making for some pleasant conditions on the water.

Remember, folks, the fish are biting, but you can't catch 'em from your couch. So grab your tackle, head on out to beautiful Lake Tenkiller, and make some memories. This is Artificial Lure signing off until next time. Tight lines, everyone!
