Thread: Lake Hefner 2010

how deep were the fish??????????

George, I went saturday and they were hanging between 12 and 20 fow. Most of the ones I have caught were very near the bottom.

Went out yesterday 12/24 with my Dad on Hefner. They were hitting pretty good on the Dam. We Fished for about 5 hours. I kept 20 good ones. I had a couple that were 11.5". Dad Fishes the lake much more than I do (he is really good) He probably doubled the number of fish I caught. He had one that was 13" and several that were over 11". My guess is he had 35 that he kept. We were getting them any where from 17' down to about 24' down. They liked a white and pink Jig or a darker orange color Bobby Garland. At one point the sand bass rolled in and we caught about 10 of those in about 15 minutes. It was a great day of fishing. Merry Christmas - remember to thank God for his gift to all of us "Jesus"

what a great day i guess i zig when i should have zag went to arcadia in door 4 dinks

I went slip corking on the dam Christmas day and managed to catch about 5 that would have kept before I couldn't feel my toes anymore. Managed about 12 crappie in about an hour and a half. Most were at 24'

I got blanked for the first time in a long time today. As I was leaving I talked to some guys that were catching crappie at 30'. I never set my cork that deep. Lesson learned.

Are you bank fishing or boat? What size jig are you using? Also, do you fish certain spots where there are brush, or just off the dam?

bp, I fish from the bank and this time of year I use a slip cork. Very little brush at Hefner but the dam at least provides some structure with the rocks.
