I hit the lake yesterday evening for a couple of hours with a buddy. We fished brush in 10 foot of water with minnows and ended up cleaning 20.
I have fished Oologah for the last few months. Blue, spencer & talala. I haven't had any luck other than one or two keepers per trip. I don't know what I am doing wrong but I fish the brush ( whenI can find it ). I usually fish 7 am til 2 or 3. Not giving up yet but it appears that most posters have good success on oologah.
They're in there Sparky. What depths of brush have you been fishing? Do you have a gps locator? Are you using minnows or jigs? Have you spent the summer fishing back in the creeks or further out towards the lake?
Brush depths of anywhere from 3-16 ft. I have been back in the creeks and out to the mouths. Have covered alot of water. I don't have structure scan but I do have a lowrance unit that is about 5 years old. I have spent a little time learning how to find brush. Im still learning that part of it. Up to this point I have only been using jigs- maribou, bobby garland plastics, crappie tubes and road runners. Trying those in several colors.
i have been fishing oolagah on and off all summer i am a hard core jig fisherman but wen i go to oolagah i always take minnows i finally started catchin some on jigs sunday but its been mostly minnows all summer
well made it out around 3 today got off the water right at dark. put in at blue creek and all i can say is disappointing. granted i am very new to crappie fishing we have some corp piles loaded up on the navionics app for i phone. we have a 100 dollar fish finder . we were able to locate the structure put out a marker buoy then anchor down around it and nothing we tried all different structure at all depths from 8 ft 20 ft we have no trollling motor just 5 hp outboard. just hoping some one can enlighten me. i see all of you guys killin them regularly mad respect to all you real fisherman. jake
Don't feel bad Jake, I put in at Hawthorne around 2 and ended up with three that would keep. Talked to another guy that caught 10. I very rarely venture out of the Talala Creek area, but with the lake level down, vada point ramp is in bad shape. I didn't have any trouble finding brush, but there were few fish to be had. It will get better once the water cools down some more and they start bunching up.
Reaper, Where Fish come to Fry
Sparkey, I feel ya. I just started crappie fishing this spring. If had not caught the easy spawning fish I prob would have quit crappie fishing altogether. It drove me mad to read the reports on the forum (often still does). To hear all the people catching 30 a day, 50 a day etc, and me, 2 or 3 keepers. Three things I found out after the spawn: 1. crappie bite light (yes that was a fish, lol) 2. slow down, we're not bass fishing here 3. confidence that the fish are biting somewhere, brushpiles at a certain depth, standing timber at a certain depth, rocky shorelines ect. I am a completely green behind the ears when it comes to crappie so this is by no means holy advice, just what I have observed. Hope it helps you. By the way, I think the guys that keep 30+ a day have secret brush piles that only they know about, just a theory, but it helps me sleep at night.
