Lake Eufaula Fishing info needed

TheDoubleD · Jan 6, 2020

Every summer the family rents a cabin or house some where and we all get together for a along weekend. This year in June for the second year we are headed to Lake Eufaula.

At my age-72 i don't enjoy riding around in a boat all day waiting my turn for 20 minutes of being dragged on an inner tube behind the boat. If I am going to sit in a boat all day I would much rather spend it doing something like fishing.

How is fishing on Eufaula in June?

Any recommendations for a fishing guide?

fishing can be good. sandbass fishing, crappie fishing, catfish. what part of the lake are you going to be on?

Eufaula from 10PM to daylight grab a pound or so of minnows find a highway bridge and tie to one of the pillars and drop a crappie light.
1-2 minnows on a line drop 4-5 feet at a time until you find the fish.
Or drop to the bottom and come up 5 feet at a time until you find the fish.
you can catch your limit pretty quickly.
Like less than an hour.

We hit the highway 9 bridge near piney creek often and once all the pillars were full.. we tied to a buoy and fished there with a light and had over 20 nice ones in the boat in less than an hour.

The people gave up on the bridge and went away.. we moved in on a pillar and put the hurt on the fish until 3:30 am and we ran out of minnows.
I noticed the people fishing the pillars would not drop their bait to different depths and hold.

If you can find some willow trees in the water pull up to those and tie off. assuming you have 4 feet of water under the boat or more.
Get out the liver or sponge bait and put the hurt on channel cats... pan frying size.
