Cane Creek Site 27 Reservoir Fishing in Muskogee County, Oklahoma

• Overview

  Muskogee County, Oklahoma, is where Cane Creek Site 27 Reservoir sits. It sits in pine and hardwood. About 10 acres of surface, which puts the far bank inside easy sight. It lies lower than most water we list in Oklahoma. Haskell lies 12 miles from the water. After that come Checotah at 14 miles and Morris at 14 miles. This one is safely inside the county line.

• Where to Fish on Cane Creek Site 27 Reservoir

  Nothing we hold settles how deep this runs. The arms fish better than the open middle whenever the water is up. Levels move with the draw rather than the rain on water like this. Survey and observation records for Muskogee County include largemouth bass, bluegill and green sunfish. Species recorded across the county may be limited to a few waters. Fish this water to its features, not to its size.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Climate normals give 82°F for July and 36°F for January. Winter is a mild inconvenience here, nothing more. The cooler months are the comfortable ones to be out. June to September is hot work, so the first and last hours are what count. At this water the season follows that pattern closely.

• Tackle & Baits

  Access status is simply unknown for this water. Nothing in the way of made access shows up nearby: no ramp, no car park, no path. Bass water: a Texas-rigged worm near cover, a spinnerbait when you need to cover ground. Where a permit is needed, the nearest town usually sells it. Some ground is open by custom rather than by right, so tread carefully. Cane Creek Site 22 Reservoir, 3.2 miles away, makes the obvious fallback. Treat this water as unsettled until someone local tells you otherwise.
