Lake Fort Gibson Fishing Guide
Fort Gibson Lake is one of our favorite lakes to fish white bass, also known as sand bass or sandies, and the prime time is from the middle of March to the end of April. They move up into the Chateau Bend area of the Grand River. We offer morning trips and evening trips using live bait and the action is very fast. Kids and families absolutely love this type of fishing! We can take up to 6 people at a time and will do our absolute best to get you on fish and make it a fun, great fishing adventure!
Fort Gibson Lake runs through Mayes, Wagoner, and Cherokee counties in Northeast Oklahoma located east of Wagoner and north of Ft. Gibson. It has 225 miles of shoreline and 19,900 surface acres.
