Members Jjbowfishes Posted March 14, 2013 Members Posted March 14, 2013 Get everybody just had some questions about table rock! Been doing some homework on the lake but I've never been in person. Bass pro shops is have a HUGE Bowfishing tournament and we are coming up from Texas for it! Super excited but the lake is HUGE! It's a big 20 format so were going for big fish common carp, grassies and buffalo! Any info will help and be much appreciated! Tournament is in 3 weeks April 6th where are the bigguns hiding?!?! thanks!!!
troutgnat Posted March 15, 2013 Posted March 15, 2013 We shot the hell of em' back in the high water of 011' all around the Combs Ferry area. Darren Sadler "Fishing is an Education...Often the fish 'school' me, yet I do not complain. I just keep going to class!"
Members Jjbowfishes Posted March 15, 2013 Author Members Posted March 15, 2013 Awesome! How big those commons n grassies get?! And were y'all shooting them in the coves or open shoreline?
troutgnat Posted March 15, 2013 Posted March 15, 2013 Both, but mostly cuts in the main shoreline. They really clung to those cedar limbs under the water. You'd go by a cedar and see that old familiar nose sticking out from underneath it. Flooded buck brush on the mainlake points was another good spot. We never shot a grass carp, they were all the good ole' commons. We had a lot of them in the 15-22lb range. Darren Sadler "Fishing is an Education...Often the fish 'school' me, yet I do not complain.

Members Jjbowfishes Posted March 15, 2013 Author Members Posted March 15, 2013 Different year different lake so far though. You fishing the tourney? I've heard it's been colder then in past years and they just aren't out yet...
Wayne SW/MO Posted March 15, 2013 Posted March 15, 2013 You fishing the tourney? I've heard it's been colder then in past years and they just aren't out yet... No I don't bow fish. My reference was to water levels. The banks of last year are dry now. If we get some rain it would help because they tend to keep TR at normal. Troutgnat was hunting in bushes normally on land. It might be an advantage to out of state people if the lake doesn't change because know one will have a lock. Today's release is tomorrows gift to another fisherman.
troutgnat Posted March 17, 2013 Posted March 17, 2013 That is correct. During that high water it was all about "green cedar". They were in those live cedars under water. Man I could post a lot of pics we had so much fun. Did nothing but shoot for two days straight, had some gar too! Speaking of "grass carp" here's a beauty(43 lbr) I shot on another lake not far from Table Rock. Darren Sadler "Fishing is an Education...Often the fish 'school' me, yet I do not complain.
