Fishing Report

[Bill Babler]

Lots of action of the rock this week, with Table Rock Guide Service reporting fishing excellent from Kimberling to Shell Knob off the main lake flats in the 60 to 70 ft. range on 1/2 oz white wareagle spoons and 4in smoke pepper single tail grubs on a 3/8 oz lead head.

Bill reported 40 fish today with 20 keepers up to 4.5 lbs. with some great smalljaws.

All the fish came off shad schools at the depths mentioned.

If you will check this thread on the trout side you will see the corps. is measuring the DO and the water temps steady from surface to 74 ft. at 50 degrees. When this occurs you have a very wide range to try to corral these green backs. The key is look for the shad.

Also as SKMO reported earler there seems to be a pretty good stickbait bite, right on the bank. Move it extremely slow. Fish seem to be coming off main lake gravel flat points. The big boys are casting 8 or 10 throws per point and moving on. Only seems to be working with a little cloud cover and some wind. Good Luck.
