I’ve fished the Rock last week and again this week, and will be going out again tomorrow. I’ve ran into, and meet several FLW anglers. All have been great to converse with. I was fishing at the mouth of a cove adjacent to a bluff end when an FLW boat pulled up on the end of the bluff wall.
I caught two fat keeper Kentucky’s which prompted the FLW angler to inch his way closer to me. As he got within talking distance so I wouldn’t have to yell, I called him over and told him that the mouth of this cove was red hot and has been for the last week. He looked shocked that I offered this information. I told him to troll around and check out what’s under the water with his electronics.
I told him I was going to move on and to enjoy the spot if he so desired to fish it. I fired up the big motor and headed across the lake to fish a point. As I fished the point I kept an eye on the FLW angler to see him catch a fish, then fire up his big motor and move on.
The next morning I saw that same FLW angler fishing the mouth of the cove I relinquished to him. I hope he does fish it during the tournament and does well.
This particular cove has been holding shad and bass since Dec of 09. Earlier in the year of 09 this cove wasn’t holding squat.
I enjoy seeing the FLW and BASS guys fishing Table Rock. I hope they schedule more FLW and BASS tournaments on the Rock. Great stuff happening right here in our own back yards.
