           The Sooner State offers plenty of opportunities for fishing from border to border. This map depicts the locations of popular fishing
           spots, listed in alphabetical order, as well as ODWC fisheries offices. Many other places to fish can be found in Oklahoma but are not shown
           here, such as “Close to Home” fishing waters that exist in some of the state’s urban areas (see page 22). The lake names in blue type are
           Wildlife Department fishing areas. The region the area is located in the state can be found in parentheses.
