March 29Th. Current Table Rock Lake Bass Fishing Report

[Bill Babler]

Dennis Wilson and I hit the water at 7:15 in the AM and it was a great day from the git-go. Dennis had said he would not be much of a problem and he was a man of his word. All he needed was me to net his fish, and that I did. 35 fish with a combination of K's, LM and Jaws to the boat.

20 Keeps, and "Yes" We Friggin DiD it Again. Best 5 at 23 Pounds. Totally different location than last week, but the same result. I am on a complete roll. It will stop, but I'm going to whip this horse to a froth, before it does.

Combination of K's, LM an Jaw's. Denny set his hooks on his personal best, a 6.5 pound Godzilla. He handled her to perfection and I dipped her right out of the water. I have been practicing alot lately. This guy can fish, and he proved it in capitol letters today.

I had my personal best fish and Denny got to whitness it. Almost a full time fisherman on the Rock since 1970, I got her today. A toad of a fsh that my Rapala scale said went! Had to catch my breath. 9.6 pounds. Previous best at 9.1 prior to the fish kill. Boy's that is 41 years of fishing this pond.

Sad part of the deal was my camera ran out of battery. Dennis had his, so I hope we have a pic. Goes without saying all are swimming free. I would have it no other way. Big gal was 26 inches plus.

Fish bit great from 7:15 till 10:30 and then nothing but one jerbait K. it was a 3 pounder, but only the one, untill about 2 Pm and then it started again, with another 11 fish to the boat. None like our early morning fish, but nice K's.

Water temps on the White River at 48.9 to 50.1 main channel, and back in the pockets the same. Very Clear. Wind light to moderate.

Another great day ont he Rock with a truly good and very gracious gentleman. It was my pleasure indeed to host.

Good Luck

Dayhem Bill......Congrats on the monster. I've been "on the pond" about the same amount of years as you, and I have NEVER broke the 9 pound "barrier".. lol.....2 over 8, and then I'd have to look at the book, but, the bigger the hawg, the fewer and farther between.

Way to go man !

Bill, sounds like you had a blast. 9.6 sounds like something that happens in Florida, Texas, or California. Usually you give a little more info as far as lures and techniques used. I just emptied out my boat and am getting ready to reload it for Table Rock. Any thing I should not leave home without? Driving all night Wednesday to get here Thursday morning. I hope the warmer forecast only makes the bite get better. Knowing there is a 9.6 out there will make me drive a little bit faster.

Congrats on another amazing day Bill.

Great day Bill, congrats on your PB at Table Rock!

Congratulations Bill.

Congrates Bill!!! You're smokin hot! My best was 9.1 back in 1985, when big fish were common. A 9.6 these days is a monster. I think you and Beck should play the lottery.
