Caught a rainbow trout in the lake, how commons that?

[GREENTRITON]

Yes, caught a five pound rainbow in Aunts creek last march. Caught it on a grub ..  Every for or five years I catch a trout in Table rock..

Wow I didn't know it is as common for some folks to catch trout from the lake. But it does make a lot of sense what has been said about the rivers and streams flooding and pushing them into the lake. It's funny to me all the different baits that have been mentioned too.

Most of the GIANT Trout from Dogwood Canyon are now residing in Table Rock Lake.

Found a dead Rainbow several years ago before the Dogwood Canyon thing began.  We guessed it had been chasing something and went airborne and landed in the bottom of a tin boat tied-up in a slip at Baxter Marina of all the darn places.  Thinking about how the Taney trout grow fat on the shad that get sucked thru the turbines and over the spillway at the dam they ought to do well in Table Rock but I've never heard of anyone catching a Brown which can tolerate slightly warmer water and can grow larger than Bows.

I've got a buddy that spooned three last year, on one trip. They must have been schooling like white bass. Funny thing was he claims all the scales fell off them came of them, coming up or in the livewell.

Don't be surprised to see a Striper or two also. Saw a guy catch one out of Wolfpen 2 weeks ago that was probably 28"-30" long.

I had a fish up to the boat the couple of weeks ago that my partner thought was a trout....we were in the Big M area and I knew it might be possible....but had my doubts... interesting that so many others have caught them

[MoCarp]

we used to fish for white and crappie under lights near Big M, always dropped a big minnow on the bottom

would pick up a couple big trout never under 4 pounds, have not fished that way for years

bet some monsters are down there after all the last few years floods

This is one I caught in the spring of 2015 very close to Kimberling City.  8 FOW on a Rock Crawler.  I think she was eating well.

I remember a few years back somebody caught a big brown
