Thread: Lake Eufaula archives

Bridge pilings, kept 10. Some really good ones this time.

Caught about a million when I was down there but only had 4 big enough to eat.

Lot of that going around these days. Next time.

Lake level has dropped and no longer in my front yard. I can get on the ramp to my friend's dock, but just haven't done any fishing lately due to the heat. I sure am looking forward to the Fall when I can start catching some crappie. Life just isn't as good without a stringer of crappie to clean.

You got that right Stink! And I agree, I'm waiting till Fall to start fishing again. With all of the dock repairs and movements from the high water this summer, I'm sure those slabs have taken off for more stable structure. Besides, it's way too hot to sit down on the dock right now -- we'd rather be in the water close to the floating ice chest. I plan on splitting some wood next week to prepare for winter, but with forecasts of 108 on Monday, I'll have to be out there at 4am with a flood light to beat the heat.

At the bridge it helped to stay back and cast to the fish. They would hit it hard on the drop. Water vis was about 36" and the fish were only 5'-9' deep, its possible they were being boat shy. Have never noticed that a Eufaula before tho. On the way back at the Highway 9 triangle you could see the mixing of water from the the Gains creek and the South Canadian arms, it was as stark a difference as I have seen on Eufaula.

Where is coal creek on the map. Having a hell of time finding it.. Working in okla from indiana. Brought the boat and I am jonesin for some slabs

Rip, check your private messages up at the top under notifications.

Thinking of venturing out on the boat today and or tomorrow, on the North end across from Belle Star Marina, are they still catching them around the bridges and is morning, or early evening better these days?
