Lake Oahe Fishing Guide
Lake Oahe, ND Fishing Guide
The meaning of Oahe stands for a foundation or a place to stand on. If you ask me what Oahe means, it means lots of water, cool scenery, and tons of hungry and willing walleyes!
This system is the holding pen for the Missouri Rivers walleyes during the summer months especially. All those fish we see every spring and fall up here near Bismarck, are only a small portion of what stack up by the millions in certain stretches of Lake Oahe.
Honestly, at times it can feel like every walleye in the State of North Dakota is living here. Crankbaits and bottom bouncers with spinners and slow death are the lures of choice to cover this massive flowing body of water. Another couple of hidden gems on this portion of the Missouri River are the world-class Crappies and Northern pike!
Once you arrive at Oahe you will see the beauty of this landscape and it is simply breathtaking! I would love to take bring you out on this spectacular body of water!

Missouri River Fishing Report-November 5th, 2023
Well, the good news is I actually got out in a boat a few times this week. The bad news was it wasn't that nice out. However, this next week's forecast is looking promising. I was hoping the fish had moved into the river better with the layoff. That did not happen...
Missouri River Fishing Report-October 29th, 2023
Unfortunately with the latest weather we just received up here in North Dakota, fishing has taken a back seat for a few days. I'm hoping things warm up enough here to get the most back in the river. Before the snow this week fishing was pretty solid. We weren't...
Missouri River Fishing Report-October 22nd, 2023
The weather forecast for the next 10 days has me a little depressed. It's looking like my open water days are coming to an end. Most of my fishing time has been spent on the Missouri River near Bismarck. Hopefully I'll get a few more days in yet? The fishing on the...
