• Where to Fish on Oknoname 037055 Reservoir

  Depth went unrecorded, which puts the reading back on you. Points where the flooded channel swings in are the reliable ones. The old creek line under the surface is the feature worth finding. Species logged across Creek County include bluegill, largemouth bass, green sunfish, Rio Grande longear sunfish and gizzard shad. These are county-wide records, so not all of them will be in this water. At this water light and wind decide more than tackle does.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Climate records put July near 82°F and January near 36°F. Long warm spells define the calendar more than any cold. Late winter and spring fish steadiest here. June to September is hot work, so the first and last hours are what count. This water fishes to that pattern most years. Autumn feeding runs harder as the light drops away.

• Tackle & Baits
