Anyone catching crappie on Oologah?

Peke

My wife and me caught 9 last night. Biggest one 2 lbs. in the last 20 minutes of daylight 7ft deep in 8 ft of water in Talala Creek. I caught 15 the night before the same way. the wind died down probaly around 0700 pm each night.

I am new to this site although i have been reading the reports for a while now. I am going to try to make it out to Oologah this tuesday and will probably try the Spencer creek area. I have not had the pleasure of catching the crappie on the bank for many years now due to work and school but am looking forward to getting in on the shallow water action. Any tips on location and depths would be appreciated in that area. I have also heard from some people in the past that the creeks up north like lightning and panther can be productive this time of year. Any input would be great.

Caught these crappie today in blue creek bank fishing. The bite didn't really turn on until 1030-11a. Colors were blk/cht, red/cht, & pumpkin seed. The bite on Oologah is about to turn on. I got reports that fish are being caught on different areas of the lake. I'm on vacation this week, so I'll be hitting it pretty hard. I caught 21. I'm trying to figure out how to post the link for the pics.

here is the pic of the fish i caught in blue creek

Welcome to OK crappie.com STU99. Nice catch Crappieguru!!! Thanks for the report and pic.

Caught a few in the Redbud area yesterday. Still not on the bank. Water temp was 59 to 63.

What is the boat ramp condition at Blue Creek? Have never fished this area, any advise on structures, stumps or etc. to watch out for? Thanks

I fished the coves N/W of dam Monday morning and could only catch 6 that were 10" to 14". One white female full of eggs and 5 black males all were shallow but next to deep water. blk/hot pink and blk/yellow jigs. Everyone where out of minnows.

Went back up to Oologah this morning. Fished from 8a-3p. Left with 20 nice crappie. All males caught very close to the bank. I fished in 4-6 fow, 1 1/2 to 3 foot deep. They wanted minnows better than jigs. Their were other fisher people around me and they were catching nice fish also. When the bite is like this on Oologah sure makes it tough to drive all the way down to Eufaula. The biggest I had was 15 1/2 inches, didn't weigh him.

Better wiegh e'm Guru.....might win a new rod!!!
