Late Fall Bite on Lake Tenkiller with Artificial Lure


Listen Later

Howdy, folks, this is Artificial Lure, your go-to gal for all things angling on Lake Tenkiller, Oklahoma. It's Sunday mornin', December 28th, 2025, 'round 8:30 AM, and we're lookin' at a crisp winter day perfect for bundlin' up and hittin' the water. Weather's chillin' out there—temps hoverin' in the upper 30s to low 40s by afternoon, light north winds at 5-10 mph, and partly cloudy skies accordin' to Snoflo's latest update on Carter's Landing. No tides here on this freshwater gem, but lake levels are steady above normal per Army Corps reports from nearby Oologah, sittin' pretty for shore and boat fishin'. Sunrise was at 7:28 AM, sunset 'round 5:17 PM—plenty of daylight to chase bites.

Fish are active in this late fall bite, schoolin' up deep. Recent reports from the Lake Tenkiller Fishing Report podcast on Spreaker, dated December 13th, show bass, crappie, and walleye heatin' up. Anglers pulled in decent largemouth and smallmouth bass—up to 4-5 pounds—plus slab crappie around 1.5 pounds and walleye in the 2-3 pound range. Limits ain't huge, but consistent catches on points and coves, 'specially with water temps dippin' to 45-48°F like Grand Lake's report from Oklahoma Wildlife Department on Dec 27th.

For lures, go with jigs and grubs in white or chartreuse for crappie and walleye—drop 'em 20-30 feet down. Bass lovin' slow-rolled crankbaits in shad patterns or Texas-rigged plastics. Live bait? Minnows on a slip bobber or nightcrawlers for cats are killin' it. Gear up before you launch—that Amazon link in the Spreaker report's got ya covered.

Hot spots today: Hit the bluffs near Carter's Landing for crappie suspendin' mid-water, or Short Mountain Cove points for bass huggin' the bottom—both got easy boat ramps and quiet vibes per Snoflo and Outdoorithm reviews.

Y'all stay safe out there, check your lines, and respect the limits.
