Oklahoma’s vast natural resources make it a paradise for outdoor enthusiasts, especially anglers. The state’s waters are home to a diverse number of fish species, including favorites like bass, crappie and catfish along with more unique species like the paddlefish. Oklahoma has more miles of shoreline than the East and Gulf coasts combined, and along the state’s banks, anglers will find numerous amenities to make fishing trips easy and enjoyable. Oklahoma hosts several fishing tournaments each year that draw big-name anglers and thousands of fans. Grand Lake O’ The Cherokees and Lake Texoma, both Fishing Trail destinations, are frequent tournament hosts and are consistently ranked among the country’s best bass lakes by Bassmaster magazine. Grand Lake has twice hosted the Bassmaster Classic. The Oklahoma Fishing Trail is designed to highlight the best of Oklahoma fishing. It’s organized into six loops, one for each region of the state. Within each loop is an all-around lake and several locations selected for one or two standout species.
