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 single swimbait or Damiki rig is catching numbers of fish. Look for the birds and follow the shad to find the most active fish. Fish under the shad. The fish that are 10’-20’ deep are the most aggressive and catchable. Plan on moving to many areas to continue to get bites. Don’t get caught chasing the same group of shad. If you see the fish but don’t get bites find a new group of shad that has more aggressive fish.

The wiggle wart bite is happening, and the lower water levels are helping this bite. The bite is all over the lake, just not in every spot. It tends to be more of a grind, and it takes a lot of spot hopping. Key in on chunk rock banks (softball size to basketball size rock) and channel swing banks. These places where the rock is a little bigger or on a transition seem to really position the fish right now. It might require grinding the bill off the bait, but these fish will bite when you put it in front of them.

Milder with plenty of sunshine
Temp: Hi 60˚ Low 40˚
Wind: W 6-12 mph
On days with more sun use an A-rig or jerkbait that are in standing timber. These fish tend to be better quality, but it takes a sunny day to get them to move up. In many cases this bite is better in the afternoon. These fish can be 10’-25’ deep. The shallower fish use the jerkbait the deeper fish use the A-rig. If the fish tend to like one more than the other stick with that bait to consistently get bites. Plan on searching to find more fish but this is a great way to catch quality fish.
