  • Summary

  • As of November 17, 2024, Lake Tenkiller in Oklahoma is looking promising for anglers. Here’s what you need to know for a successful day on the water.

    First, let's talk about the lake levels. Currently, the pool elevation is at 633.27 feet, which is about 1.27 feet above normal[3].

    The weather is expected to be mild, with clear skies and a water temperature that's still relatively comfortable, though it has dropped significantly since the summer months.

    Sunrise today is at around 6:55 AM, and sunset will be at approximately 5:00 PM, giving you plenty of daylight to fish.

    Fish activity has been good, especially for those targeting crappie, striped bass hybrids, and white bass. Crappie are biting well on minnows and tube jigs, with a minimum size limit of 10 inches and a daily limit of 15 per person[2].

    For striped bass hybrids and white bass, crankbaits, hair jigs, in-line spinnerbaits, and plastic baits have been effective, particularly below the dam and in the main lake areas[4].

    Catfish are also active, biting well on cut bait and punch bait[5].

    If you're looking for hot spots, consider the areas downstream from the Horseshoe Bend boat ramp to the dam. This section is known for its cool water and is popular for trout fishing in the tailwaters. Additionally, the rocky bluffs and outcroppings around the lake provide excellent habitats for various fish species[2].

    For access, you can use the public-use areas or the fishing dock concessions operated by private resorts in the Burnt Cabin, Caney Creek, and Tenkiller State Park areas.

    Overall, Lake Tenkiller is in great shape for fishing, with plenty of fish to catch and scenic spots to enjoy. Just remember to check the local regulations and be mindful of any wildlife health advisories in the area.
