| Fort Gibson Lake lies in the hills of
eastern Oklahoma where the Cherokee Indians maintained a self-governing
nation for 60 years. The lake was named for nearby Fort Gibson,
which played an important role in the military history of
Oklahoma. The fort was abandoned in 1857, reoccupied during the
Civil War and served as an agency during development of the west.
Fully abandoned in 1890, only a reconstructed log stockade now stands on
the original site.
Fishing at Fort Gibson is excellent. Fish species include black bass, white bass, crappie and several varieties of catfish and panfish. Fort Gibson Public Hunting Area, on the lake near Wagoner, covers 21,798 acres, with 3,500 acres devoted to a waterfowl refuge. Hunters will find game species such as whitetail deer, bobwhite quail, mourning dove, waterfowl, geese cottontail rabbit, squirrel and prairie chicken. |
