Thread: Navigation Channel

The Navigation Channel Tournament is still a month away and I am sure with in the next few days or week the Tournament Sponsor will be posting a time and place.....Ranger

Have any of you put in at 3 forks harbor in muskogee/ft gibson near OGE plant? I've been wanting to try creeks and such that run into river. Anyone had any luck fishing for crappie on river or creeks near there?

I fished the 3 rivers area about 3 or 4 weeks ago looking for ice free water, not a single crappie but huge sand bass up the Grand river a bit. Some were well over 3 pounds.

Thanks fishers. Appreciate it!

That's kind of my home ramp and I fish that stretch of river from coody creek down to salt creek even to spaniard creek.lots of crappie around.can be tough this time of year if your not familiar with the area but like a lot of places as the water warms it gets a lot easier.lots of Visible Stumps And brush to poke around in

Thanks bricklayr! I'm only about a mile away so really interested in learning it. I must admit, that river kind of intimidates me for some reason. I have a 16ft skeeter and 50hp motor. You see any reason for concerns or should I be fine?

your fine,i see guys in small john boats all over.the north south stretch out from Hopewell park can get pretty rough in a strong south wind but the creeks provide a lot of shelter.be very carefull in the creeks until you get the channel down.lots of stumps just under water.i fish manard bayou a lot this time of year but not far off until boudinot creek turns on.there are fish to be caught in coody creek I just don't fish it much.the last couple weekends ive been catching fish 4 to 6 feet deep in 4 to 8 fow.jigs suspended under bobber,they wouldn't hit any thing moving.the water temp was up to 54 way back in the creeks.the fish have been moving farther back each time I go out but this cool weather coming will probably back em out a bit.get on out there and get em.good luck to ya

Really, really appreciate all the info bricklayr!! If/when I make it out ill let you know. Thanks again!!!
