Spring Lake Fishing in Blaine County, Oklahoma

• Overview

  The Blaine County entry here is Spring Lake, in Oklahoma. Height above sea level is 1,690 feet. By elevation it is in the upper part of our Oklahoma listings. Some 7.3 miles away sits Geary, the nearest settlement. Further out sit Watonga (11 miles) and Hinton (16 miles). The nearest edge is a long way off, so local rules apply throughout.

• Where to Fish on Spring Lake

  No depth figure appears in our records, so the bank has to tell you. Look for where the old bank line still shows under the surface. The old creek line under the surface is the feature worth finding. Reported across Blaine County: green sunfish, bluegill, largemouth bass, orangespotted sunfish and common carp. Read it as a county summary, not a water-by-water list. On Spring Lake a short move beats a long cast.

• Seasonal Patterns

  The year swings from about 35°F in January to roughly 82°F in July. Ice comes and goes from one year to the next. It should never be assumed safe, whatever the month says. The cooler months are the comfortable ones to fish here. Expect Spring Lake to follow that timing. The hour either side of first light is rarely wasted.

• Tackle & Baits

  We hold no note on access for this one. Mapping shows an empty shoreline: no ramp, no jetty, no marked entry. A small crankbait along the drop and a worm in the thick stuff cover the bass. Rules differ from one water to the next round here. Barbless rules turn up on managed water more often than not. Groendyke Pond Number 1 sits 5.7 miles off and takes the overflow. Nothing here settles the position at Spring Lake for certain.
