Thread: Webbers Falls

Fished the area many time in bass tournaments, and you definitely want to be cautious running outside the channel, but excellent fishing can be found here.

How is the best way to get to the Spainard Creek ramp?

Thanks for the report I was thinking about bringing my daughters down next week.Have you heard anything about Dirty Creek?
Thanks!

I'm driving down to OK tonight to let my daughter stay with the in-laws for spring break and I plan on fishing this weekend. I was planning on fishing Eufaula but this place sounds interesting I checked it out on the map and marked the boat ramps with the GPS. With the cold front you all had move in down there do you think I would have more success at Webber's Falls or should I fish Eufaula? Your opinion will be greatly appreciated.

STL I would plan on maybe fishing Eufaula if you already know the lake. Webbers Falls can be tough to fish when they turn off. I have not been there since the cold spell we just had. I am sure they will pick back up next week when the weather warms. If you do decide to fish Spainard Creek put in at the ramp and head to the bridge to your east fish they pylons and then go under the bridge and fish the north bank were the lay downs are. You need to be patient the bite seems slow, but productive. Now you can go under the other bridge to the west of the ramp and hit those pylons to then if you happen to try and fish the standing timber to the west of there you are in for a big surpise. It looks like open water, but it is only about 3-4' deep and the timber is the same. If you can manage to stay in the creek channel and make it up the creek you will find some good fish in there. Hit all the laydowns on the outter edges. Go as far up the creek as you can with your boat. I run a 20'er and I go to the point I can't turn it around and have to back it out of the creek.

Good Luck.

Answered my own question. Hwy 64 to Elm Grove Road.

Thanks for the heads up on the area. Haven't been there in years.

I'll try it Sunday for the heck of it. Should catch a few.

The best way to the ramp is down 64 out of Muskogee. Turn onto Elm Grove Rd this is a paved road, but bumpy. Just stay on it and it will take around to the ramp. You will be crossing a bridge that you need to fish after you put in. Well actually you will cross two bridges I am talking about the second bridge. Now the ramp to use will be to your west when you cross over the bridge. You can see it when you cross the bridge.

The first bridge isn't that big so don't get confused here by my statement. You will know when you cross the right bridge. You will see another bridge to your right as you cross it. That is the Muskogee Turnpike.

I am telling you if you go out into the main river you better run the channel markers cause this place will eat up a boat and motor in a heart beat.

If you leave Spainard Creek and head for Greenleaf Creek go due east and before the river turns you will see Greenleaf Creek to your left. Water gets to about 7' after you leave the main channel just watch for any floating logs or submerged logs. Once you get in there hit the barge pylons to your right then go straight across and hit the laydowns on the west bank. Will have to hit the outsides of them get shallow from mid tree back. Make sure to hit the train bridge pylons to.

I'll take my 16 foot aluminum vee bottom john boat this time. I use a 18hp motor on it. This will give me a chance to learn the water before I take the big boat.
