Zobisch Lake Fishing Guide, Caddo County, Oklahoma

• Overview

  The Caddo County end of Oklahoma holds Zobisch Lake. This is mixed woodland country. The water measures roughly 8 acres, so nothing here is far from anything else. The closest town, Hinton, is 2.9 miles away. Then Geary, 14 miles, and Weatherford, 22 miles. Rules can differ a short way off, since the county line is near. Ground round the water is easy walking in most parts.

• Where to Fish on Zobisch Lake

  We hold no survey for this water; read the slope of the shoreline instead. Draw-down through summer strips the margins, so follow the water out. Points where the flooded channel swings in are the reliable ones. Species logged across Caddo County include green sunfish, largemouth bass and channel catfish. What holds for the county may not hold for this water. On Zobisch Lake that means starting tight and working out.

• Seasonal Patterns

  The warmest month averages 82°F, the coldest about 35°F. Mild ends to the year keep the season long. Cover comes and goes, so treat it with suspicion rather than trust. Spring and autumn carry the year; summer squeezes it into the ends of the day. It sets the rhythm of the year at Zobisch Lake.

• Tackle & Baits

  We hold no note on access for this one. We find no slipway, car park or made path within a short radius, so treat access as rough. For the bass here, soft plastics worked slow along cover and a spinnerbait for searching do most of the work. Where access is informal, keep it that way by behaving. Fishing rules and camping rules are set separately here. Fay Abbott Reservoir sits 3 miles off and takes the overflow. Check the position at Zobisch Lake before loading the car.
