Oknoname 037058 Reservoir Fishing Guide, Creek County, Oklahoma

• Overview

  Creek County in Oklahoma is where Oknoname 037058 Reservoir sits. The surface lies 768 feet up. Small at around 15 acres: two anglers spread out cover most of it. Head to Bristow, 10 miles away, for anything you forgot. Tulsa sits 35 miles out, and it is the nearest city worth the name. The nearest edge is a long way off, so local rules apply throughout.

• Where to Fish on Oknoname 037058 Reservoir

  Depth remains unrecorded, so treat the first session as a survey. Rip-rap along the wall holds fish that the open bank never does. Levels move with the draw rather than the rain on water like this. 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. On this water a short move beats a long cast.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Averages here run 81°F at the top of summer and 36°F at the bottom of winter. Summer heat is the limit here, not winter cold. Spring and autumn carry the fishing; summer squeezes it into the edges of the day. November and March are the quiet, comfortable months to be out. At this water the season follows that pattern closely.

• Tackle & Baits

  The rules here are undocumented as far as public sources go. Formal access is not mapped, so the last stretch is likely on foot. A small crankbait along the drop and a worm in the thick stuff cover the bass. Look for a notice board at the entrance. Where tickets apply, they are sold in the nearest town rather than on the bank. Failing this one, try Little Deep Fork Creek Site 49 Reservoir, 1.2 miles away. For this water in particular, ask before you travel.
