About Fort Cobb Reservoir
Fort Cobb Reservoir was formed by an earthen dam on Cobb Creek, a tributary of the Washita River, completed by the Bureau of Reclamation in 1959 to supply irrigation and municipal water to Caddo County. The dam sits a few miles north of the town of Fort Cobb, Oklahoma, which took its name from a 19th-century military post built to oversee relations with regional tribes during the Indian Wars era. The reservoir now anchors Fort Cobb State Park on its eastern shore.
The lake's roughly 28 miles of shoreline draw anglers working for striped bass, white bass, walleye, and channel catfish, with the Oklahoma Department of Wildlife Conservation running periodic stocking programs. Its setting on the edge of the southern Great Plains, west of Oklahoma City and north of Lawton, puts it within reach of Fort Sill and the Wichita Mountains, and the surrounding land mixes cattle ranching with cropland. Camping, boat ramps, and a marina at the state park support weekend traffic from nearby towns like Anadarko and Binger.

Fort Cobb Reservoir depth chart, in wood
This is a Fort Cobb Reservoir depth chart you can hang: 6 stacked layers of birch, each one a depth contour — 13 ft, 25 ft, 38 ft, 50 ft, 63 ft and deeper, down to the deepest hole at about 75 ft. The lake covers about 5.8 square miles, and 171 shore roads are engraved around it. The shape of the bottom is the real one from published soundings, so anglers recognise their drop-offs and points.
A Fort Cobb Reservoir map for the wall — or a gift
Most of these go to a cabin wall, a lake house entry, or a home office; a lot are gifts — the family that has been on Fort Cobb Reservoir for three generations, the retirement move, the first boat. The 12-inch is the desk-and-shelf size; the 24- and 30-inch boards read across a room. Add a line under the title and star your place on the shore, and it becomes the map of your Fort Cobb Reservoir.
Fort Cobb Reservoir map — the details
How big is the map?
Four sizes: 12, 17, 24 and 30 inches on the long side, from $149. Every size is cut from the same depth data of Fort Cobb Reservoir; the bigger boards carry more shoreline roads and place names.
Is it made from real depth data?
Yes. Fort Cobb Reservoir is cut layer by layer from published bathymetric soundings — each layer of birch is a depth contour, so the shape of the bottom is the real one, not decorative.
Can I add my own place on it?
Yes. At checkout you can add a line under the title (a family name, a cabin name, a year) and star the spot on the shore that matters to you.
How long does it take?
Made to order in Waterford, Pennsylvania and shipped in 7–10 days; shipping is free in the lower 48.
Can you make a lake that isn't listed?
Any lake in the United States — we hold depth data for 104,419 of them. Search for yours; if it isn't built yet we build it when you order.
