The catfish bite was above par we caught 15 of those just where we were anchored up. We went on the catch 5 more blues after we give up the white bass. It was a great trip plenty of fish and action Adler was killin it on grabbing them poles and gettin er done turtle was released unharmed 16,17,23,24 are days still open for white bass spawn.
Fish On! Thanks Robert You and your team were an absolute blessing to have out today. Thank you so much for choosing my service. We started out doing a little spoonbill trolling it was pretty slow. We had 2 fish on and both of the darned things managed to escape the hook after we busted up that school of fish they were wild and dodging the hooks, We decided to go on to the white bass portion of the trip I did a little looking and feeling around with the current and settled on a place. It took a while to get them swarming around the boat but when they did it was hammer time. I had 5 experienced fisherman today and we flat packed the cooler, the fish was all going to different homes so I just made sure we got plenty to send home for everyone. We also fished till the last bait, honestly with that many lines hammering it didn't take long to boat over 200 fish. I cleaned 165 of them which is more than usual. There was so much boat traffic and action going I couldn't set the catfish lines. Bait was a little harder to catch today I think they cut off the water and some of them went out in the channel. I'm moving the start time up a little over the weekend and future trips to get a little more fish time to play around. Tip for today if there is some current try to find some slack water along the edges of the channel for downlines, use florocorbon leaders and live shad. If the water is off fish middle of channel and anchor up the boat so it can't blow around and scare the fish. I've still got openings 16,17,23,24 this month. We can target paddlefish, White bass, and Catfish. Sometimes we can get all three on one session but things have to be just right to make that happen. Book anytime at fishonok.com
Fish On! Fishonok.com Back to upper Ft. Gibson today, water had dropped a little and no trash floating no current again similar to weekend. Water temp running 63/65 degrees. We wanted some spoonbill today and I headed over to a quite place with no traffic the numbers had really picked up at that spot we got that done pretty quick in 20ft of water then moved on to some white bass fishing, the first stop took awhile to get them going. Without the flow we are just fishing middle of the channel and I'm using livescope to locate them. Both stops were 14ft of water fishing live shad on downlines. I also set 3 catfish lines and we got those on every stop as well. The bite was good and fast but the fish were smaller. We boxed about 30 of them and went in search for bigger fish but all the stops yielded male white bass. Out of the 70 or more we boated only a couple female fish today. We had fun whacking them. 16th, 17th, 23rd, and 24th are still open. Time to play hookey and go fishing while its still on The spoonbill fishing is real good now. I stay rigged for all 3 species at the moment. Long term fish on clients today, Big thanks to Danna and Dale for supporting my service! No hero photos today on the fish count we released the majority of them. I cleaned 36 whites, 12 blues and released the spoonbill to complete its spawn.
Fish On 4-8-24 forgot to get my post up, I had some regular clients on the boat today. Jerry loves to fish. This is the only time of year that the bite never stops you just have to leave them biting and it can be difficult to leave. I had a little extra time today so we really packed them in, cleaned 132 white bass and 12 blue cats. We were slow on the first drop but got a few nice catfish and a couple whites. Moved up to check another area and we got them going there real fast and just stayed that way. Talk about fun. Water temp I noted was between 58 and 63 degrees, fishing 5 to 12ft of water. We didn't have much current over the weekend, yesterday there was a little flow, There has been no unsatisfactory trips or conditions but I've had to adapt to conditions to make it work daily and I like to avoid the crowds I've got my methods and they work. We been catching spoonbill, white bass, and blues sometimes all on the same trip other times we focus on one type or the other and hit em hard. Thanks Jerry love having my repeat clients. Book any hour of the day at fishonok.com or call or text me, my phone does not work great where we are fishing but I'll get your message if it go's to voicemail. 16,17,18,22,23 can all be options. Take a day off and go while you can boat hundred of fish on an outing would be my suggestion the spawn only happens once a year. The more anglers the better on these trips. Seems like about 4 people is about right. We had 2 anglers yesterday and as you can see it still worked just fine
