Well I gave Tenkiller another try this morning. This time I went north from Pettit, eventually making my way under the bridge to Dry Creek, fishing various coves and some brush piles I saw along the way.

I started the morning catching two 4-5lb catfish on my crappie rig and a small sandbass. And wound up catching 4 keeper size crappies 12-14", and a handful of smaller ones. I released the keepers yesterday and today since I didn't feel like cleaning only 3 or 4 fish (I'm sure I would have felt differently if I didn't have crappies in the freezer ). I fished mostly 20fow and less today.

In Dry Creek there was what I'm guessing is a research team with a boat that had a bunch of tentacles hanging off the front on each side and a generator or something running. A guy was driving and a guy was up front with a big net scooping up fish as they went along. And back in the cove about half way there was a big area with bouys all around it that looked like a research operation too.

I never really found a consistent pattern to the fish on Tenkiller in just two days of fishing, but both were great days to be out crappie fishing on a beautiful lake.
