05/16/11 Lake Hefner Dam (Ok)

[Fishing N Boots]

Went out to Lake Hefner Dam (Oklahoma City, Ok) and decided to do some fishing. We arrived about 30 minutes prior to sunset. Lake Hefner is an extremely fished lake, so it's extremely difficult to find a monster. The fish that you normally catch are Hybrid Bass, Crappie, Walleye, and Perch (i dont count perch). To give you an idea about this lake, it's nothing huge. It's almost like an extremely large pond. Not really any coves, and right now it is extremely low, i mean extremely low. We were shore fishing on the rocks at the dam.

So about 15 minutes in, my fiance catches a hybrid bass. Then she takes off, in the next 10 minutes she catches a total of 5 hybrid bass. The biggest was 1lb, average was right around .75lb.

So we are about to pack up and just head to the house whenever her uncle catches this monster. I say monster because we usually dont catch this big of a Largemouth Bass. Especially out of Lake Hefner, when catching a large mouth is scarce. It was a 4lb'er. He caught it on a Green Crankbait that he actually found one day while fishing.

I didnt catch a single thing, even after we left lake hefner and went over to a pond and tried it out for an hour or so. So hopefully tonight or tomorrow, since i will be fishing both days, i will be able to post up some pictures of what i catch.

*If the pictures arent working it's because of the firewall at my job that's not allowing me to do it right, and i will fix it whenever i get home.
