The weather is favorable with a comfortable temperature of around 58°F and a gentle breeze of about 5 mph.

The lake's elevation is currently at normal levels, and the water temperature is around 65°F with a slightly stained clarity.
### Sunrise and Sunset
Sunrise today is at 6:53 AM, and sunset will be at 5:04 PM, providing ample daylight for a full day of fishing.
### Fish Activity
Bass, including largemouth, smallmouth, and spotted bass, are active around channels, docks, and points. They can be found in shallower waters, typically 5-10 feet deep, especially during the early morning and late afternoon. Crappie are congregating around brush structure, docks, and the main lake, usually at depths of 5-15 feet. Catfish, including blue, channel, and flathead, are more active in the deeper channels and main lake areas.
### Catch Reports
Yesterday saw a good catch of bass using crankbaits, jerk baits, and plastic baits. Crappie were biting well on hair jigs, minnows, and worms. Catfish were caught using chicken liver, cut bait, shad, and stinkbait.
### Best Lures and Bait
For bass, crankbaits, lipless baits, and plastic baits are highly effective. For catfish, chicken liver, cut bait, shad, and stinkbait are recommended. For crappie, hair jigs, minnows, and worms are your best bets.
### Hot Spots
Focus on the main lake points, channels, and areas around the rocky bluffs and outcroppings. The tailwaters below the dam are also promising, especially for trout fishing due to the cool water. The areas around brush structure, docks, and shorelines are also productive for both bass and crappie.
### Local Tips
According to local angler Cody Youngblood, "Early morning and late afternoon are the best times to catch bass and crappie. For catfish, fishing at night with the right bait can yield impressive results."
With the right gear, bait, and timing, you're set for a successful and enjoyable day of fishing at Lake Tenkiller. Happy fishing
