Thread: Favorite Spots

I like to slow troll with plastics usually. I've always fished that way so I don't know if I am fishing like huckabee or not. I have never been too lucky with spider rigging as usually that system has me with one biting here and line wrapped around my seat there. One pole heading for the lake and another being baited up. All of a sudden the fun is gone and the )(*&*&^&*^&^%^%&*^ is going down. I have two baited up and one in my hand. If I don't have luck on this one I go to the other. I like my life simple.

Honest though I have fished a pile with a plastic I just know will catch fish and back and forth back and forth and then I get caught up in watching a duck or a snake or a school of baitfish and I do something different like cast from a different position or angling along with the brush and bang there they go. Sometimes it's just the approach.

Once on the Verdigris fishing a log I cast across it from various angles and never even got a hint of a bite then I hooked the log. When I got close enough to unhook from the log we drifted down from it and I cast along with it angling alongside of it and as long as I cast like that I could do no wrong. Any other approach and nada.

Sometimes it is just approach.

Oologah. if you put in at hawthorn and have your pole already rigged you can have a crappie in the boat within ten minutes of leaving the ramp any day of the year.

hey does that dew taste when it is deep fried

My husband and I have recently retired back to Ok after being away for over 30 years. We really want to start crappie fishing again but we really don't know where to go that is close to us. We are in Yale, which is about halfway between Stillwater and Mannford on 51. We have been going to the dock at keyport marina in Mannford, but we are really looking for some places that we can get to without a boat, since we don't have one. Some of the lakes that u all are talking about are farther from us, so any help in this matter would be great. We use to live in Texas and we always crappie fished and really looking forward to getting back into it, just wish we had a boat....lol any help or suggestions would be great

ladytulsa I hope I can help here are few places I have had my best luck. Get on the internet and google maps of keystone lake will help you find the places I am going to wright down. Appalachia bay on the south side of the highway west end of the bridge on 412 it is good fishing but it is a little bit of walk to the water, Cowskin bay recreation area I have well up there to, and the Brush creek recreation area is the north side of the keystone dam I have done very good on the rocks close to the dam. I live on Fort Gibson lake it is about 40 miles east of tulsa on highway 51 we are catching a bunch of fish here now all I am catching are up in the shallow coves and creeks about 1-3 ft. of water. Good luck on the fishing and I sure this info helps you and others as well.

Has Anyone Here Ever Fished Longtown On Eufaula, We Stay At Hiway 9 Landing And Was Wondering If Anyone Has Had Any Luck In That Area??

show... check the bridges around there....also there are some coves to the south on the east side that we used to fish during the spawn and used to do real good in them....but i haven't fished them in years.....dont really know why i havent gone back...but they had some good straight edge banks and tree roots and also had trees in the mouths of the coves in deeper water
