Tuesday they were on structure and wanted 1/16 ounce heads. Wednesday they were in 25' in the schools of shad which were thick all along the dam and used two 1/8 ounce jigs. Thursday i found most in 24' right off the bottom but picked up a few in 18-19' on structure with 1/8 ounce heads. I scanned a few piles in 14' or less on thursday and some piles were holding some fish. Not a big school but definitly holding some fish. Just keep after it and you will get that lake figured out. You ever see a 24' SeaArk with T-top swing by and say hi.

Thanks for the info Swollen. I’m gonna be spending a lot of time on CB the next 4 months. I’m hoping this weeks cold blast makes them school up. I’m in a red and black Tr21x. Maybe we will cross pathes

Still tough wish they had a 9 inch size limit people keeping too many 7 inch fish

Or 10” would work also.

Gotta agree with the size limit. There have been way too many small fish kept. I spent a couple of days there recently and caught 66 dinks and seven keepers. If everyone put those dinks back, we'd have some pretty good fishing. But as long as those fish aren't given a chance to grow up,.......

What about the hybrids in CB? Has anyone had any success of late? If so please share the depths they are running in. Again my search was limited to the deeper water around the dam and the mouths of a few creeks close
To the dam. Is Sooner Lake a better option for Stripers this time of year? I’ve never been on Sooner but have read it’s a great striper lake.

14 dinks, 5 keepers to 12 inches. Mostly right on the bottom, but some at about 12 ft. Then off for my geezer bday party.

Sooner lake is a tough lake to fish the white perch have almost eliminated the shad and the crappie there I catch them in 2 feet if water they taking over sooner lake

I would think more if stripers what you looking for sooner is not the answer texoma or skiatook look at the guide reports on skiatook sooner is just overfished and understocked. Skiatook is better

Got out yesterday for a few hours. 8 good ones to 13.5 inches, and only 10 smaller ones. Other guys getting some 11-12 inchers. Nobody killing them.

Ok thanks Bigsky. I think I’m going to try my luck on Bell Cow the rest of the week. I’m told there are some nice fish there just hard to find.
