Is the lake iced over?

the best to keep hands warm and dry is to put on rubber surgical gloves under finger-less gloves

We had club tourney last Sat. 11.71 won shallow fish, we got second with 10.85 shallow fish. these fish cam off of bluffs with stick-ups or brush right on bank. soon as your bait hit water around wood you may get a bite. Or fish all the way to back to boat and get a few more bites. Fishing 40-50 ft deep is not for me. tends to hurt fish.

go to bassmaster.com for results

If you do want to fish a cheep tourney, on Oct 21 His House is having their 2nd annual. Its from 7-3 out of Viola, $60 to enter including big bass. This benefit tourney is for a good cause and helps feed families.

I agree with Champ. For example, the Homer Sloan tourney used to be a tourney you wouldn't miss. But now look at the payback, $120 to enter, 50 plus boats, and you can't even get your money back for 4th and 5th place. $750 to win.

Table Rock Buoy Removal and Massive Boat Wakes
slowbait replied to Browning Guy's topic in Table Rock Lake
I know the government will never get rid of the oversize boats on TR. So they should at least meet us halfway and have a no wake law at night for these tuna rigs so we fisherman can also enjoy the lake. Last week I almost got got thrown out of a 21 foot ranger twice at about 10:30 at night. This is nuts when you can't see the wakes coming at you. If you where in a jon boat you would have capsized and no one would known. -
Well said Quillback.
-
Smithville Steve, I am so glad you are a saint. Never killed a fish. But, do you cut down a apple tree because there are a few bad apples in the tree? Yes there are some bad tourney fisherman, but there also some bad pleaser fisherman that kill fish.
-
Some dock owners, BUT NOT ALL, think they own the shore and water around their dock. So maybe this is a wake up call from the government saying they own it. When in reality the American people who pay taxes own it. I think, well maybe, who knows.
-
how deep where they
-
might want to go to stockton. Its not as bad
-
if we get all this rain, I bet they will close the lake like they did a few years ago. Its at 919 now without the rain coming and beaver is full already

Drag a jig behind him is about all you can do

veterans
-
The best I've seen yet. Now we need to get our PRO Teams to do the same. It's so selfish to see people disgrace our veterns.
-
I didn't mean to start a argument, but I know what I would do. When it's all done I would go to the store and pick me out a boat, load it up with rods and reels, and say "See you next year boys".
-
Put yourselves in Johnny's place, what would you have done?
-
Jim you are absolutly right. The people on this post know how to take care of fish. Its the ones that do not wish to learn or dont care to go the extra mile are not on here
-
I fully understand Champ. And you are right about the wood in TR. The fish have already started the offshore thing. The bigger and smarter fish stay out there unless they are laying eggs.
-
It's certainly better if the group "cleans up" after itself and takes the dead ones home, but every one that dies is just one less fish the rest of us have a chance to catch next time out. And before anyone says it would be just as gone if they'd just been fishing for a meal, tournament anglers are supposed to be conservation leaders. l Glad you put that line in Champ, cause if you read Donna's reply it states that a few are kept. And there's NOTHING wrong with that. At least they are not wasted.

LOL Its amazing how that Mt Dew works but it does. Its good for something.
-
I Agree with you on that quillback. Very much agree. You dont know how hard myself and Dean push these helpful hints during the tourneys we participate in. And stay an hour or so after the tourneys to needle or help fish survive. We have even put some back in a good livewell to help revive fish and it works well
-
Ok quillback, sorry I misunderstood you. But I do agree with you that some tourneys need to be policed. My partner and I have not lost a fish all year to not taking care of our fish and we fish two tourneys a week. If anyone has any questions I will be more than happy to help them keep their fish healthy. I my not have all the answers but saving a few fish will help.
