On Lake Sooner we like to fish for hybrid striped bass which are plentiful here. The optimal time of the year is September, October, November, and early December. We use live bait on free lines and down lines. Our boat can accommodate 5 to 6 people easily. The limit is 20 per person so getting our limit means you will have a lot of fish fillets to take home. We will do our absolute best to get you on fish and make it a fun, great fishing adventure!
Sooner Lake is located in Pawnee county in Northeast Oklahoma just west of Watchorn. It has 42 miles of shoreline and 5,400 surface acres.
