I agree with you DrNip. When the lake stays 20' high for months following the spawn there are bound to be unusual numbers of fry who survive along with several way successful bait fish spawns. Throw in a couple of mild winters where the water temp stays above 40 and everybody survives to repeat the cycle of life. Everywhere I go on oologah right now I see 2016 shad on the surface. Those 9" crappie shouldn't stay dinks for very long!
I've said it before and I'll say it again. I miss the drought years for 2 things. Better fishing and less mowing!!!
Well I made it out early Monday. Hit a few different spots had 5 keepers and I think about 15-20 dinks on a lake fork jig. So seems as the bite is coming back. That wind cut my day off about 11. Someone help me out had a photo I wanted to add but can't find the option on mobile
TULSA – The Tulsa District, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers will release up to 15,000 cubic feet per second from Oologah Lake to remove downstream sediment, resulting in lower lake levels September 7 to September 11.
This release will support navigation on the McClellan-Kerr Arkansas River Navigation System by removing a sediment shoal near the confluence of the Verdigris and Arkansas River, near Muskogee, Oklahoma.
Currently, Oologah Lake’s elevation is nearly two and a half feet above the normal elevation of 638 mean sea level. During the release, lake elevation could approach 636 msl by the end the day, September 11.
With a lower than normal predicted lake level, visitors to Oologah Lake should be aware of the following potential impacts:
• Boaters may expect more water hazards and exposed sand bars. Vessels equipped with a depth finder are strongly encouraged to closely monitor the water depth. Please keep your safety a primary concern and wear your lifejacket when on or near the water.
• Blue Creek Boat ramp may experience a temporary closure if the lake elevation reaches 636 msl.
• The Verdigris River Boat ramp located at the dam will be closed due to the high water flows.
Overall impacts are expected to be relatively minor and short in duration.
The last time the lake experienced a significantly lower than normal elevation was January 2013 when the elevation reached 633.66 msl.
A return to normal elevation of 638 msl will be contingent upon inflows and rainfall within the Oologah Lake watershed.
Well that sucks. Was gonna go this morning, but decided to mow and I would go next Mon or Tues. If we don't get rain, I'm not sure. Anyone ever use Spencer or Winganon when its at 636? Don't want to hang a trailer off the end of a ramp.Quote:
