Quillback Posted May 24, 2019 Posted May 24, 2019 Got to the lake at dawn, looking for top water striper action. Long story short, never really found any. Covered quite a bit of lake looking for them, saw a few coming up by Clifty, stopped and fished there a while, caught one 18" striper and had one that was the size I was looking for, take a whack at my top water when it was about 20 feet away from the boat - I felt him grab the bait and reacted a little too quickly and I think I probably pulled it away from him. That was about it for striper action. Spent a couple of hours fishing around docks for bass with a 3.3 Keitech, caught 5 bass, 2 of them were keeper sized smallmouth. Also caught 4 short walleye, they were all 16-17" fish. Pulled the boat out at 10 AM before the weekend rush got going. nomolites, JestersHK, liphunter and 6 others 8 1
Sore Thumbs Posted May 24, 2019 Posted May 24, 2019 I’m gonna go in the morning for a few hours. Probably gonna be a busy lake with all the Oklahoma lakes being shut down

Sore Thumbs Posted May 25, 2019 Posted May 25, 2019 I decided not to go this morning. Got a bunch of stuff to do around the house.
