Lakes I'd Like To Fish This Year. What Are Your Plans?

Featured Replies

Don't really think I'll get to fish all these lakes this year but here are some I am dying to try. 

 

Lake Fork

Gunnersville

Table Rock

Caryle

Shelbyville

Rend

Kincade

Egypt

Truman

Mark Twain

Wappapella

Lake of the O 

 

Plus a few locals.

There are close to twenty lakes in NE Ok I'd like to fish this year that I haven't been to before. Among them are:

Oolagah

Hudson

Copan

Birch

Hominy

Skiatook

Pawhuska City

 

Been to and would like to go back to:

 

Lone Chimney

Blue Stem

Fairfax

Ponca City

Pawnee

Sooner

 

If my partner were retired, we would probably have a better chance of getting this done but he's a ways from that yet.

Yea I am  retired and it makes it a lot easier for me. Most of my buddies are still working whuch makes it harder to travel. Sometimes the " warden", lol, comes along. Whoever goes with, we normally have a great time. Don't allways catch the big uns, or the numbers but we usually do ok.

If I can get some vacation time from work, I'd love to get down to Bull Shoals, or Table Rock.

We go there twice a year and we love it. I think it's the most beautiful lake in Missouri. Just our opinion.

We did real good on smallies the last time.

Current plans call for 2014:

 

Grand Lake O the Cherokees

Mark Twain Lake (2 times minimum)

Lake Long Branch

Lake Rathbun

Lake Odessa (6 or more)

Upper Mississippi Pool 9 -15 (multiple trips)

Misc. Iowa Local lakes & ponds

 

Probably will fish 70-80 days this year minimum. Will start week of March 17th at Grand Lake and then start hitting small Iowa lakes for the big pre spawn bass. After that I move into seasonal lakes and river, probably end of May until everything is iced over in December.

Is Lake Long Branch in Northeast Missouri? If so, any good?

Hudson

Skiatook

Hudson is a good lake, but there are way better fisheries in NE oklahoma than the other ones you listed (According to me  :wink2: ). haha

Grand Lake

Tenkiller

Green Leaf

Dripping Springs, in Okmulgee

are in my top 5 with Hudson

 

If you go to hudson be careful lots of hidden stumps and rocks in the water.  I tore up a prop at hudson.  Stay in Channel when you can.

 

I fish Ft Gibson a lot just because it is closest to me its a good lake.

Lake Fork

Toledo Bend

Table Rock

Grand Lake

Broken Bow

Sam Rayburn

 

I hope i'm able to get to some of these lakes this summer, while school is out. 

University of Oklahoma doesn't like me missing class to fish for some reason.  :eh:  :eyebrows:

Long Branch Lake is in Missouri - just outside of Macon, MO.  It's ok, IMO there are better lakes in Missouri.

MN

Third Crow Wing

Seventh Crow Wing

Long Lake (Park Rapids)

Big Stony

Nagel

Leech Lake

Island Lake

Fishhook Lake

Are you talking about the Island Lake near Lengby, MN?

I've been taking a trip to this lake for the last 2 years.

We fish Gibson a lot too, it's close. We couldn't buy a fish out there today though!
