I grew up on Okmulgee Lake, fishin’ with my Dad! There are four boat ramps (one of which is fairly steep and isn’t used as much - but is great for kayakers). Each boat ramp has a wheelchair accessible Courtesy Dock, allowing for ANYONE to be able to enjoy these waters. There are also ample camping options, including tent camping areas. Okmulgee Lake features hiking trails that travel along the shore line, as well as into the trees and hills of the park’s well-maintained property. Guests can also visit the historic Okmulgee Spillway, a 1930’s-era WPA Project that controls the levels of the lake and when fully flowing, draws onlookers from miles around for photo opportunities and videos. As for the fishing, on the South Side of the lake, Salt Creek and the shallows and grassy areas it provides gives the big Bass a place to hide and forage for bait fish. There are many coves and camping areas to fish around, and private docks and boat docks provide good cover for Bass, as well. The Oklahoma Department of Wildlife Conservation has provided Okmulgee Lake with several Submerged Fishing areas that attract Crappie and good sized Bluegill. Another fish that Okmulgee Lake has become known for over the years is Catfish, i.e., good-sized Flathead Catfish, Blue Catfish and Channel Catfish - even making legends out of some of the local fishermen due to the size of their catch. Whether fishing, skiing, wakeboarding, tubing, hiking or camping, there is a little (or a lot) of everything for everyone at this hidden gem of a park in Green Country. As mentioned earlier, I grew up on this lake, and now I’m able to see my kids do the same, and hopefully my Grandkids too, someday. Let’s all take care of one another and of our resources, so that wonderful places like Okmulgee Lake (developed into 1868) will be around for the NEXT 160-plus years and more!
