Fishing Forecast for a Mild Day at Lake Tenkiller

  • Summary

  • If you're planning to head out to Lake Tenkiller today, here’s what you can expect:

    First off, the weather is looking mild with temperatures in the mid-60s, making it a perfect day to be on the water. Sunrise was at about 6:50 AM, and sunset will be around 5:00 PM, giving you plenty of daylight to fish.

    The lake's water level is currently at 633.60 feet, which is slightly above normal, but this shouldn't affect fishing conditions significantly. There are no tidal reports for Lake Tenkiller since it is a freshwater lake, but the water release from the dam is steady at 1820 cubic feet per second.

    Fishing activity has been moderately active, with the best times expected around 10 AM. Yesterday, anglers reported a good catch of striped bass, which were biting very well on live shad. Catfish were also active, taking cut bait and punch bait. Crappie were caught using jigs, and it's worth noting that crappie must be at least 10 inches long with a daily limit of 15.

    For lures, jigs are working well for crappie, while live shad is the go-to for striped bass. Cut bait and punch bait are your best bets for catfish.

    Some hot spots to consider include the areas around the Horseshoe Bend boat ramp and the rocky bluffs and outcroppings along the shoreline. The tailwaters below the dam are also popular, especially for trout fishing, although trout fishing is more consistent in the cooler months.

    Overall, it should be a great day on the water at Lake Tenkiller, so grab your gear and enjoy the fishing.
