O.C. Fisher Lake Fishing Guide

Angling Opportunities

O.C. Fisher was effectively dry in early 2015, but water levels improved in spring. TPWD has restocked the reservoir with largemouth bass, white crappie, blue catfish, channel catfish, and bluegill. Although a few large fish can be caught, most fish are small as they are only one to two years old.

Cover & Structure

Structure in O.C. Fisher Lake is comprised of rip rap, mud banks, creek channels, submerged humps, and drop-offs. Cover is primarily flooded terrestrial vegetation and rocks.

Tips & Tactics

Catfishes are caught all over the reservoir on live baits and prepared baits. Largemouth bass are caught using minnows and artificial lures in the flooded vegetation, rip-rap, humps, and drop-offs. White bass are best caught by trolling artificial lures in open water near the humps and drop-offs. Crappie are caught on jigs and minnows nears drop-offs and humps.
