The Table Rock Lake Fishing Forecast is designed to help maximize the time you spend on the lake with catching more fish. The fishing forecast is constructed using a mix of historical data, tournament results, weather patterns and general lake conditions. One of the biggest elements is using actual information from recent time on the water. This gives a general snapshot of some of the best ways to catch fish at that current time.

The jighead minnow keeps gaining steam, but the fish are in a transition phase but a feeding mode. Look for balls of bait fish along channel swings. This can be on the main lake or in the front third of larger creeks. These fish are suspended in a range of 10’-50’ deep over water as deep as 80’. Once you find the bait fish you should see smaller wolf packs of bass chasing them. If the fish do not respond on the first couple of casts look for a new group of fish, find active fish. The key is not being afraid to keep looking for more fish. It seems the fish want larger baits so use shad-colored baits in the 3”-6” size range.

The glidebait bite is improving as the water temperature continues to drop. With the water level down look for cedar trees that top out near or at the surface. These fish tend to be shallow in the tree so keep the bait moving quickly near the surface. The best trees are the ones that are at the mouth of pocket in larger creek arms. It does not take a large pocket but it does take having a tree at the mouth of it to find these fish. Cover as much water as possible wind and sun helps this bite. Use a larger bait 7”-9” in length in shad colors but a little red to gill area.

Cloudy.
Temp: Hi 49˚ Low 33˚
Wind: ESE 7-14 mph
The wart/crawler bite is starting to happen. Look for mixed rock banks that have larger rocks mixed in or ledges. Use a craw-colored bait and keep covering water. It seems the rock crawler is a little bit better because it will run a bit deeper. These fish tend to happen in bunches. If you catch one you will catch a couple quickly then can go for longer stretches without a bite. This bite seems better in the river arms and in larger creeks.
