Anglers need to pay attention to the generation schedule at Tenkiller dam... but if you catch the river when the is past generation or between you will do very well. Stocking of fish happens regularly and there are lots of trout to catch. A ODWC managed area knon as the Watts WMU is very popular and offers a good variety of fishing. In the one mile section of the river there is a 1/2 mile lower section devoted to catch and release.
