Catfish
Looking for some whiskerfish action? Afton, Oklahoma, puts you in prime catfish territory with Grand Lake O' the Cherokees nearby. This lake holds healthy populations of channel, blue, and flathead catfish. Summer nights are ideal, as catfish become more active in the cooler temperatures. Stink baits and cut bait are go-to choices, especially for channel cats. If you're after blues, try drifting larger cut bait in deeper channels. For flatheads, live bait like sunfish or bullheads fished near submerged timber can be deadly. A local hotspot is the Neosho River arm of the lake, known for its deep holes and structure. Be mindful of boat traffic, especially on weekends. Also, be sure to check the Oklahoma Department of Wildlife Conservation regulations for size and creel limits, as they can vary by species and location. The catfish in Grand Lake are generally robust and provide a great fight.
