• Where to Fish on Quapaw Creek Site 27 Reservoir

  No depth figure has reached our records, which makes a plummet useful. Inflow corners move water, and moving water gathers fish. Levels move with the draw rather than the rain on water like this. County-wide records name channel catfish, orangespotted sunfish and green sunfish. County records show what lives in the area; the local agency holds the water-by-water list. Work this water in sections rather than trying to cover it.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Between January at about 37°F and July at about 82°F, the water has a wide range to work through. The awkward stretch is midsummer, not midwinter. Late winter and spring fish steadiest here. April and May are the settled weeks, with October close behind. Time your trip to this water by conditions rather than dates.

• Tackle & Baits

  The rules here are undocumented as far as public sources go. No made access is recorded, so a short walk in is the likely arrangement. A small crankbait along the drop and a worm in the thick stuff cover the bass. Take the rules with you rather than trusting memory. Keep proof of licence with you rather than in the car. If the gate is shut, Quapaw Creek Site 28 Reservoir at 0.7 miles is the nearest alternative. Check the position on this water before loading the car.
