I've been to Blue Mountain Lake and that area several times in the past. Very beautiful but tough to fish. Lake is loaded with all of the usual trout suspects and LL salmon. However, the sudden depth changes while helpful for locating fish, make it tough to troll deep as it can go from 50 ft to 10 ft of water quite rapidly. I also fish from a kayak. Not a small body of water either. I don't know of any camping spots that are right on the shore. More like cabins and cabanas with amenities for rent and all filled up this time of year. Durant is shallow and weedy but would be easier fishing once you get out there, not practical to fish from shore. Local knowledge is key, so many little holes and small ponds, need to look at a map.
