Tenkiller Lake's Ideal Fishing Conditions for Bass, Crappie, and Catfish

  • Summary

  • As of October 27, 2024, Lake Tenkiller in Oklahoma is offering some excellent fishing conditions. The lake's elevation is currently 0.47 feet below normal, with a pool elevation of 631.53 feet, and the water is clear.

    For today, the sunrise is at about 7:43 AM, and the sunset will be around 6:24 PM. The weather is expected to be mild, making it a perfect day to be out on the water.

    Fish activity has been good, especially for largemouth and spotted bass. These bass are biting well on crankbaits, plastic baits, spinnerbaits, and topwater lures around brush structure, channels, points, and shorelines. Crappie, both black and white, are fair on hair jigs, minnows, and tube jigs near brush structure, docks, and the main lake. Catfish, including blue, channel, and flathead, are also active and can be caught using cut bait, live bait, and shad around channels, flats, and the river channel.

    If you're looking for some hot spots, consider the areas around the Horseshoe Bend boat ramp down to the dam. Here, the structure and channels provide ideal habitats for the bass and crappie. Another good spot is near the rocky bluffs and outcroppings, which are common in the Ozark highlands surrounding Tenkiller Lake.

    For bait, stick with what's been working: crankbaits and plastic baits for bass, hair jigs and minnows for crappie, and cut bait or live bait for catfish. The clear water and stable lake level make it an ideal time to get out and enjoy some fishing on Lake Tenkiller.
