Guide To Fishing At Lake Ellsworth

AKA: Ellsworth Reservoir

Fishing is the big draw at Lake Ellsworth, a 5,600-acre reservoir in the southwest corner of Oklahoma, 10 miles north of Lawton. Boating and water sports are a close second. Anglers here primarily target big catfish, and quality bass and crappie. Catchable hybrid striped bass (wipers), saugeye and several species of sunfish all populate this fishery in good numbers.
