2020 Lake Eufaula Guide

Welcome to Lake Eufaula

B

eautiful sunsets and sandy beaches are one of the first thing people notice at Lake Eufaula. Then the massive size of Oklahoma’s largest lake sets in. With 105,000 acres of water, there’s plenty of room for any type of water sports. Plus, there’s the sandy beaches for building sand sculptures, catching some rays or strolling along looking for treasures.

Nature abounds in the 800 miles of shoreline. It’s a fisherman’s paradise with an abundant supply of crappie and bass. Anglers can cast a line for catfish too or just grab ‘em up noodling. Hunters can find a spot in the Corps of Engineer Public Hunting areas for deer, turkey, ducks and wild hogs.

Two state parks and Corps of Engineer Campgrounds offer a variety of camping options, tent, yurts and RV’s. There are two Good Sam Parks and other private RV Parks in the area as well. Traditional hotels/motels and all types of rentals are available from small one-room to luxurious elevated cabins and more.

Seven marinas around the lake offer food, beverages, fuel, boat slips and rentals.

Several have ship stores with accessories for your lake fun.

Pleasing your palate is easy with all the eateries. Deli’s at the convenience stores, numerous local flavor restaurants plus on the water or overlooking the water dining give visitors great venues for quality meals. Just a few miles from the lake is Oklahoma’s Little Italy, Krebs, OK. Feasting on great Italian food there is a must with a visit to Lake Eufaula.

Sandy beaches and sunsets are here all year long! Plus they’re free!

Visit for vacation, a weekend getaway or a day trip! You might just want to stay for a lifetime!

Lake Area Museums

H

istory buffs can make a day-long journey or more to visit the museums in the Lake Eufaula area. Civil War, Eufaula Lake, Cowboy and Rodeo, Native American, and community history are all part of the museum trek.

Honey Springs Battlefield and Visitors Center

preserves the history of the largest and most influential Civil War engagement ever to take place in Indian Territory. On a hot, muggy day, just two weeks after the famous Battle of Gettysburg and Vicksburg, July 17, 1863, a total of nine thousand troops converged on a small farming settlement along the Texas Road in Muscogee (Creek) Nation called Honey Springs. These troops, historians believe, represented the most diverse set of individuals and cultures to fight with and against one another, than in any other conflict during the entire Civil War. American Indians fought for both the Union and Confederacy. The First, Second and Third Indian Home Guards fought for the Union. The Indian Brigade, also American Indians, fought for the Confederacy. A first for the Civil War was a group fighting for the Union that were former slaves.

The first African Americans to fight in the Civil War were the First Kansas Colored Volunteer Infantry Regiment. The Battlefield and Visitors center is located at 1863 Honey Springs Battlefield Rd, Checotah, OK. Open Tuesday through Saturday 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. 918-473-5572.

This museum is open Saturdays 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. or by appointment. Email EufaulaMuseum@outlook.com to

L

ake Eufaula State Park is a great choice for an Oklahoma getaway.

Whether the stay is short or longterm, a visit to this state park is guaranteed to be memorable.

The park is located just south of I-40 near Checotah, in southeastern Oklahoma. Situated on Lake Eufaula, a 105,000 acre reservoir, there are many activities available for visitors on both land and water.

On land, Oklahoma’s diverse foliage and wildlife can be observed on hiking trails such as the Bluebird Trail. Visitors can bring bikes to get around the expansive park and take a ride on one of the mountain bike trails. The Deep Fork Nature Center educates visitors about native animals and plant species, and kids and adults can participate in naturalist programs and activities. For kids, the park offers many playgrounds and a fishing pond. A 9-hole disc golf course is located at Hummingbird Beach, and there is no fee required to play the disc golf course. Stop by the gift shop in the park office to rent disc golf equipment for a nominal fee. Nearby, the 18-hole Fountainhead Creek Golf Course, operated by the Muscogee Creek Nation, features views of the lake, complete with a putting green and pro shop. Lake Eufaula State Park also has a Lovelock Fountain, which encourages visitors to add a personal, and lasting, touch to the park.

While there are so many things to do on land in the park, Lake Eufaula allows visitors the opportunity to play on the water.

There is a swimming area with a beach, and multiple boat ramps provide easy access to the lake. Fishing is a big attraction at Lake Eufaula State Park, and a marina located in the park makes year-round fishing possible with an enclosed, heated fishing dock, as well as a tackle shop. Some of the largest fish in the state have been caught at Lake Eufaula.

Various accommodations for a stay at Lake Eufaula State Park are available.

Approximately 34 full hookup RV sites, 65 RV sites with water and electric and 93 tent sites are available. For a unique overnight accommodation, book a stay in a yurt, which offers a foldout futon with bedding, microwave, mini fridge, electrical outlets, a large picnic shelter and lake access at your doorstep. Pets are not allowed inside the yurt. Comfort stations are scattered throughout the park. Ideal for meetings or family reunions, the group camp features a fully equipped kitchen, dining hall, stocked pond and four air conditioned bunkhouses that can accommodate up to 96 people. Lake Eufaula State Park also features an airstrip for the convenience of those who would like to fly into the park.

Midway between Eufaula and McAlester off US 69 on the western shores of Lake Eufaula, the city of Crowder is a convenient stop for groceries, gas and bait. Enjoy our fullservice RV Park with 30 and 50 amp hookups, lighted boat ramp, courtesy dock and fishing dock.

This rv park is within the city limits of Crowder. The fishing in Crowder can’t be beat. According to locals, crappie fishing from the bank is about the best on the lake. It’s also the perfect place for catfishing in the winter months.

Water Safety Tips The US Army Corps of Engineers wants you to come out and enjoy Lake Eufaula this summer. They also want you to be safe while at the lake so you can return again year after year.

Lake Eufaula is a great place to spend the day fishing, swimming or boating and can be fun for family and friends and the cornerstone of any outdoor vacation. However, water can also be dangerous and present various hazards, especially for children. Before you head out to the Lake please read up on some of my favorite water safety tips. s 0ROTECT YOURSELF BY AVOIDING WATER THAT is discolored, or where foam or scum is present. s 3WIM IN DESIGNATED SWIMMING AREAS only. While not every location can have a lifeguard present, make sure to swim in established swimming areas, far away from hidden dangers. s 0RACTICE THE BUDDY SYSTEM WHEN SWIMming. Swimming with a partner will ensure that if an emergency does happen, someone is available to assist you or go for help. s +NOW YOUR LIMITS 3WIMMING IN LAKES

and rivers can be vastly different than swimming in your backyard pool, so don’t push yourself beyond your natural swimming capability. s )F YOU RE NOT A STRONG SWIMMER OR JUST learning how to swim, don’t swim in water that is too deep. Always swim in an area where your feet can touch the lake bottom.

Stay safe and don’t try to keep up with more skilled swimmers. s "E PREPARED FOR EMERGENCIES )T S always a good idea to have someone along that is trained in life-saving skills, such as CPR. Taking a free class at local organizations such as YMCA or YWCA can help save a life someday. s !,7!93 WATCH CHILDREN WHEN THEY ARE in or near the water. Do not get distracted by phone calls, text messages or talking to others. s 7HEN CHILDREN ARE SWIMMING IN OUTDOOR bodies of water, a life jacket is always recommended. s !VOID SWALLOWING WATER WHILE SWIMming. s !VOID SWIMMING IN POLLUTED OR ALGAE

affected water. Check for visible signs and avoid surfaces that are questionable. s 7EAR EAR PLUGS AND SWIM GOGGLES WHEN appropriate. s 3HOWER BEFORE AND AFTER SWIMMING AND make sure to wash any cuts and scrapes with clean water and soap. s #HECK THE LOCAL WEATHER CONDITIONS and forecast before swimming or boating.

Strong winds and thunderstorms can be dangerous. s ,OOK BEFORE YOU LEAP $IVING INJURIES can be severe, so check the water’s depth before you dive in and identify any hidden rocks or other hazards, even if you plan on leaping in feet-first. s )F YOU ARE BOATING EVERYONE SHOULD WEAR a Coast Guard-approved life jacket. In Oklahoma, all vessels must carry one wearable floatation device for each person onboard and all children under 13 years of age must wear their life jacket at all times. Make sure that the life jacket is appropriate for the child’s size and weight. s "E AWARE THAT ALCOHOL AND BOATING DO not mix. While out on the water, you must be able to think quickly, since water and weather conditions can be unpredictable.

Also note that one third of boating deaths are alcohol-related. s 2ESPECT ALL WATER AND BEACH CLOSURES

Lake Eufaula

Always above par. ( 35.403° N

95.608° W )

How do I sum up our family reunion? Going back to Lake Eufaula was a gift. I’ll always cherish those picnics that stretched long beyond dusk. And swapping stories about all those shenanigans we pulled (and survived ! )when we were kids. The little ones soaked up the sunshine, trying their luck with the bow and arrow, horseback riding and fishing. And those carefree afternoons on the greens?

It was so rejuvenating to unplug and unwind like that. These are the stories worth telling. These are the memories worth capturing … and I can’t imagine a better backdrop than Lake Eufaula.

It's Camping Season.

Sailing

N

othing ends the day better on Lake Eufaula than a relaxing sunset sail with the light evening Oklahoma winds pushing you toward the bright orange glow on the horizon. All sailors are looking forward to new adventures and fun with our family and friends in 2020. Each year creates more memories for us. Those memories will always be cherished as we grow older.

A great idea, not only for sailors but any boater is to keep a journal on board our boats. These journals are a great place to record our memories, but also for many different safety reasons. We should always designate someone on board for every single outing to record the number of souls on board when we disembark. Along with that, they typically note the temperature, wind speed/ direction and weather forecast for the day. A well-kept journal will have the date and time we left the dock on every outing. It will also have the names of everyone on board. This person will also check for proper counts on the life jackets aboard.

Once the safety portion is recorded in the journal, then comes the fun part!

We usually pass the journal around the boat during that day’s sailing adventure. Each passenger will usually write

a few words of wit, wisdom, comedy or just describe what a great day it is to be out on the water and what they are feeling at the time. Our boat, Caliente, is on her second journal documenting her journeys. The best kind of journal needs to be leather bound with very thick paper, because there is no doubt that it will get wet.

It is always so fun to go back through the years and read the words of someone who was aboard as a first time sailor that day, or someone who has just experienced a hair raising sail with 30 mph winds, or maybe someone who has been moved by a particularly perfect day spending time with those most important to them, especially if that person is no longer with us. What you end up with is a book of inspiring words from people who shared time with you on your boat. People who have left their mark on your life. Some who sail with you all the time, others who left but one page in your journal but whose emotions of that day flow from the words they wrote and will be with you from then on.

Of all the things on your boat, one day this journal will be the most cherished of all to you and your family. So try starting a journal this year if you don’t already have one and start recording the most treasured moments in your life. By the way, it’s a great place to keep track of oil changes and maintenance too! Here’s to everyone having a great 2020 on our great Lake Eufaula.

Keep it safe and keep your hands on the helm!

Scenic Drive & Biker Trips

ake Eufaula has beautiful, scenic drives for motorcycle enthusiasts. The Lake Loop gives bikers great views of the massive waters of Lake Eufaula with smooth riding on blacktop roads through all sorts of terrain. Take Highway 9 east of Eufaula and ride through the Longtown area to Highway 71 at Enterprise. Check out the shops and dining opportunities along the way.

Turn north on 71 and discover the Brooken area and the panoramic view of Lake Eufaula Dam. There are parks and recreation areas to stop and see the outdoors.

Be sure to stop and enjoy the breath-taking view at the dam overlook and make plans to return to experience the 450 acre ATV Trail just below the dam. After crossing the dam, turn left in front of the boulder and travel through the hillside of the Porum area. At the stop sign, turn left onto Texanna Road and follow it through all sorts of lake developments, parks and areas to explore.

Stop for a meal or just to check out all the cool spots.

Travelers will end up at Highways 69 and 150. Go under 69 and follow the road out the Lake Eufaula State Park or get on 69 and head to your next destination. This is about a 50 mile ride. Timing is all up to you.

There are marinas, shops, dining, campgrounds, lodging facilities, sandy beaches, fishing and swimming holes and lots of fun things to explore on this ride.

Heading south on Highway 69 from Eufaula is another great ride. Take a detour through Arrowhead State Park and see all it has to offer. Then continue on 69 to Crowder, a little lakeside community. Exit there and get on Nale Road to head toward Blocker. Be sure to slow down and look both ways for a gorgeous view as you cross the lake. At Blocker turn right onto Highway 31.

This will take you through the Elm Point area and into Krebs, Oklahoma’s Little Italy. Stop at Pete’s Place for a divine meal or try one of the other Italian Restaurants in this community before continuing on to McAlester and Highway 69. This 35 mile ride has plenty of action with opportunities to stop, shop, eat or just enjoy the outdoors.

These rides are suggested for bikers but can be enjoyed by anyone!

Hunting

E

ufaula Lake lays claim to some of the finest hunting opportunities in southeast Oklahoma. Much of the Public Hunting Land on Eufaula is managed by the Oklahoma Department of Wildlife Conservation. The rest is managed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.

Together these agencies manage approximately 31,000 acres of Public Hunting Land on Eufaula Lake. Most of this land is zoned as Protected Shoreline (Fish & wildlife).

Public hunting lands on Eufaula Lake are open to each and every citizen of the United States who meet the license requirements.

All Oklahoma state Hunting regulations apply on U.S. Army Corps of Engineers hunting land and are enforced by Oklahoma State Game Wardens. Most hunting seasons are the same as for the rest of the State but there are some exceptions. It is your responsibility to be familiar with the hunting regulations and to make sure the area you hunt is actually open for hunting. Get a Eufaula Hunting map and get familiar with the area before you plan to hunt.

Here are a few hunter safety tips to take to the woods with you. Know the

40

correct way to carry your gun. Treat every gun as if it were loaded. Always point the gun muzzle in a safe direction. Be sure of your target. Keep the safety on or the chamber unloaded until ready to fire.

Never lay a loaded gun on the bottom of a boat. Never shoot on or over the water. Remember, we share the hunting lands on the “Gentle Giant” with the entire population of the Nation. Don’t litter, be courteous, practice hunting safety, and enjoy our great outdoors.

Fishing

I

t’s no secret that Lake Eufaula is the largest lake in Oklahoma so it just makes sense that some of the best fishing in Oklahoma is right here on Lake Eufaula.

The four most sought after fish are black bass, crappie, catfish, and white bass. Added into this fishing equation are striped bass below the dam and gar and other rough fish for the bow fisherman.

The term black bass includes largemouth, spotted, and smallmouth bass. All of which are plentiful all over Lake Eufaula.

Because of its size, Lake Eufaula will usually have three types of water clarity ranging from murky to clear. This variety of water conditions will fit any type of fishing conditions.

Largemouth and smallmouth bass have a 14” limit which helps to insure a quality fishery. At this time, spotted bass are under a no size or number limit due to their high numbers in population.

The next most popular fish on this lake is the crappie. Lake Eufaula is known as one of the top ten Crappie Fishing Lakes in the nation. At this time there is no length limit and the number you may keep is 37 per person per day. Crappie is caught year round and is present in all areas of the lake. Some of the more popular crappie areas are near bridges, rip-rap shoreline, brush piles and standing timber.

The Department of Wildlife has placed a new type of habitat called spider blocks.

Look for pieces of plastic pipe sticking out of the shallow water areas and give them a try. There is a very strong argument that Lake Eufaula is the best crappie lake in Oklahoma.

Catfish are also very popular in Lake Eufaula and are basically equally scattered around the lake and traditionally they prefer the deeper creek channels and rocky areas. Blue, channel, and flathead catfish

are caught on a wide variety of baits and can also be caught year round. Some of the largest catfish are caught in the dead of winter.

Rod and reel, jug line, and trotline are all used to put catfish on your stringer.

For the not so faint of heart you might try your hand at noodling, a type of fishing for flathead catfish. Most noodling is done in May thru July. If you don’t mind sticking your hand in a dark hole under water and having a flathead chomp down, then this is the fishing for you; just hold on.

White bass are probably the fish with the highest numbers and visibility on Lake Eufaula. There is currently no size of limit to the number of white bass you may keep.

The white bass is Oklahoma’s state fish and the current state record was caught on Lake Eufaula in 1984.

When water is being released below Eufaula dam, striped bass fishing is popular.

Several of the state record striped bass have come from this area.

Due to miles and miles of shallow flats, bow fishing for rough fish is a popular way to stalk and arrow a gar, carp, or buffalo.

Up to date fishing regulation guides are available at fishing license dealers and should be consulted for the latest rules and regulations or by visiting www.wildlifedepartment.com.
