Does anybody fish upper Oologah?

Panther creek.

Thanx for the advice Brian. When I think summer creek pattern I think in terms of 12' steep banks a d trees. is that what you are talking about? The only problem I see with that up there is the lack of water that deep.

Yeah the stumps are THICK! and it does remind me of the Hichita bottoms. I was thinking more in terms of fishing a spawn pattern in the 5' or shallower main lake stump beds. What do you think about that?

If the lake is high, or if the lake is low, it is much safer to target those stumps in the main lake. But only if the winds are very calm! There are tons of fish up there, and large ones too! Great Summer area to fish, but you gotta use your head, or trouble is just one wave away! We nearly lost our boat up there in 38FOW! We were rolling and rocking and came down on a stump that started a leak that our bilge couldn't keep up with. Barely made it to bank!! But with that said, I know that the winners for CAST's classic were fishing right next to us up there. We ended up in 10th & had 2nd biggest fish for that one, but only weighed 13/14 fish in the two day event. Zebra mussels cut off several good fish for us, and we lost a hog at the net too. Any one fish more would of put us in 2nd or 3rd, but thats the way it goes! LOL! Big bites, full baskets, and God's blessings to ya!

Ok what road do I turn down for Vada Point? Also is there a better way to get to Spencer Creek? I've fished Salt Creek down there by Rd 25 and normally and walk up and down the creek and see the fish and catch the bluegill left and right.

From Winganon Road, turn south on 4130 Rd for about two miles.

Heading South on 169, there is a road sign that says Wiganon. Turn left, look for the Space Capsule in the ditch, then turn right. There is also a Vada Point sign. Go south until it turns to the left and the ramp parking lot is on the right.

(Anyone wanting to fish Talala Creek during the spawn, can take Hwy 69, head South out of Muskogee until you come across a place called Crowder, find a ramp, you're there)RoflRoflRofl
