Josh, there are a lot of ramps on the lake. There is a good bait shop in Skiatook which is just a few miles east of the lake. I think all of the ramps have courtesy docks, but the one at Hominy Landing is not usable right now.

I always launch at Osage. It's not as crowded during the spring and summer. The only issues I have with this lake are the thieves. I'm very nervous about fishing at night because they will break into your vehicles. The biggest concern I have is catching someone in the act. I just dont have a piece of mind when I'm out late on this lake.
Crappie Hog, there are thieves everywhere.
Piece of mind is not what I carry at night, anywhere! But piece is

We fished Skiatook yesterday. It was the first time for me and my partner had only been a couple of times. We got on the water around 845 and struggled for the first hour. We finally figured out the fish were out over open water chasing schools of shad. Once we figured that out the bite was steady. We found the fish in 17-22 fow they were 12-14 feet deep. Best bait was 1/8 Crappie pro head in black with shad colored Bobby Garland baby shad and 1/8 White Crappie Pro head with blue/white Bobby Garland baby shad. We cleaned 29 and had to quit at 1230.

Wow, Odie. That is an awesome fish. Congrats!!
Nice chunk there!
That's a good one! Glad you put a report up for us!!!!
used to live in Owasso for 29 yrs.and fished Skiatook a lot.This time of year Feb.and March you could go up Hominy Creek which it is like the largest creek to feed the lake.Iam talking way up the creek like 2 to 5 miles where it starts narrowing down timber all along shore line.under normal lake level ,Idont know how far you can go with lake down.The locals used to go up at sundown and fish at night depending on weather.Iknow a guy that lives upon Hominy and would fish at night off the bank just below where he lived and would cast out to edge of channel and catch some monsters on shiners and float.Few years back he had one in freezer 19 in long.Hominy creek is more like fishing a river.Thats a real nice crappie deerhunterodie !
Anybody else getting bigger fish at Skiatook? My experience with the lake showed the fish to be on the small side.
