• Where to Fish on Oknoname 08104 Reservoir

  No depth figure has reached our records, which makes a plummet useful. Built water gives depth close in, which suits a bank angler. A reservoir gives you a hard edge, a shelf, and not much else. Fish documented in Lincoln County include channel catfish, orangespotted sunfish, green sunfish, largemouth bass and bluegill. The county list is broader than any single water. This water gives up its fish to patience rather than distance.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Expect July to average close to 82°F, with January the cold end at about 36°F. Heat sets the pattern from late spring onward. October and November give a second good stretch as it cools. The cooler months are the comfortable ones to fish here. Expect this water to follow that timing.

• Tackle & Baits

  There is no clear statement anywhere on who can fish it. Nothing built is recorded close to the bank here. Bass water: a Texas-rigged worm near cover, a spinnerbait when you need to cover ground. Read any posted signs at the access point rather than assuming. Keep proof of licence with you rather than in the car. If the gate is shut, Otoe Creek at 2.5 miles is the nearest alternative. Signs at this water carry more weight than any list.
