Pete Wenners February 11Th. Video Report

[Bill Babler]

Folks if you have not had time, please go over and look at Pete's February 11th. Table Rock Lake video report.

It is Outstanding!!! Pete has been on the water at least 4 days a week all Winter and has really kept a handle on what is going on lake wide.

His reports are not speculation on what should be happening this time of the year, they are WHAT IS HAPPENING.

He covered grub fishing in the Kimberling Area, the Alabama Rig different water temps and how to fish them to what is happening up the White River and he was pretty close to Nails on.

I really respect a guy that will tell you he was catching 45 fish a day and that when the deep fish scattered went to 6 fish per day. His reports are as accurate as he can make them and they only come from what he or close friends are doing within a day or two. Very good honest stuff.

It is hard for a lot of folks to really get a grasp of our water color and he tried to give some degree of what that is. He said clear and stained by stained he meant 15' of visibility instead of at least 20' in the Baxter to Campbell Point area.

He also made a great point about jerk bait fishing, fishing the bait behind the boat. This is a technique that Buster always does, and the way I caught ever fish I caught the other day on the Stain Reaction. That bait was just trailing me and I would just turn its head. Every bite came when it was just sitting. Every Bite. My fish mostly came and they could have came off the bottom as I saw some that did, in the 20 to 35 ft. range. He is catching his fish up the White a bit shallower than I am but I believe so is Quill.

He also mentioned the water temps up the White River and how sometimes early up there, cooler is better. Just really good accurate stuff.

He has two videos for February 11th. One on the fishing and a supplemental on batteries which is always an electric topic here. Pro-Guide out of Battery Outfitters in Golden Missouri is our battery headquarters and they really know how to set you up. Lane and his staff are battery experts and they have a huge field staff making sure you are powered up in any condition. They really care about everything Table Rock and everything battery related.

Good Luck

I watch Pete's report every week, it is gold! Add to that Mr. Babler's reports and a person has some great, up to date info.

Thanks Bill and Pete for providing the hard earned info!

I only see 2/4 report on his youtube page.

Absolutely. Pete's reports have put me on fish more than once, and also prevented me from fiddling with things that are not working. Good, plain, info.

We anxiously await the introduction of the Bablercam...

We ran into Pete last June near Kimberling City during our week's stay at Table Rock. Very nice man to talk to. His report pretty much backed up what we were experiencing, and what we saw him putting his clients on as well.

Love the amount of information he provides week in and week out.

Very good info. on both topics. I was fishing LOZ a couple of years ago and was up in a cove. Went to start my motor and nothing. The guy at Bass Pro told me that is the way your starter battery will go. Start up and then next time nothing. He told me to use a starter battery for 3 years and then bite the bullet and get a new one. Even though your 3 old battery seems fine. He said it will leave you hanging!! Mr Wenner on here talks about the Pro Guide for 5 years. This is the 3rd year on my starter battery. I will take Mr Wenner's advice and definitely buy me a Pro Guide. Thanks for all the valuable info I get on this website boys!!

I struggled the other day with boat control trying to fish the stick bait on a heavy wind blown bank. I was on fish and managed to catch a few, but was not presenting the bait properly. Pete's tip and Bill's mention of his experience in his post are the solution. By keeping the nose of the boat into the wind you can control the movement of the boat and therefore of the bait, hence the bait is trailing behind the boat. Great tip Pete and Bill!
