Thread: Lake Eufaula archives

What a difference a day makes. I went out solo this afternoon for about three hours. Within 5 minutes I had one 1.75 lbs. The rest of the time was one 7" dink. Brought the boat home.

There are several areas around the lake like that. A couple of years ago, when the water was really low, I was amazed to see the amount of trees sticking up out of the water in areas that we used to ski over. I had no idea they were just below the surface in those areas. Really made me think of how dangerous that would have been to fall in one of those areas.

Yessir....just south of Belle Starr toward Eufaula cove....large area out there full of trees....straight south of Fountainhead....west of Gentry creek....this is one lake where you need a map and gps. The thing is, you might be in 30 ft of water but there may be 29 feet trees still out there. I watch skiers and jetskis run right through those areas without a clue all the time

Anyone trying the Dutchess Creek Area?

VERY true. That's the part of the lake I live and grew up on. We hav pics of standing on trees out in the middle of the lake. (Literally 29 ft of water). Aways gotta b aware

Fished the north end today with out oldest son...caught about 20 or so....mostly dinks....best bite was in about 12 fow on brush....water is way up and gotta find the shallower piles
