Water Level: 915.0 Normal Pool 915.00 Water Temperature: Mid 60"s Main Lake Water Color: Main Lake Stained Cloudy, Rivers: Muddy.. Wind Condition: calm Forecast: Chance of Rain and Colder as the mid week get's close! BASS Warm weather and dropping water has really changed Table Rock again. High water temps have pushed the fish up shallow and in certain places spawn is on and a large number of fish staged and ready to move up. Then come the cold fronts... Pushes everything back out and we start all over.. But found most of these fish are only moving out to about the 15 foot range. Today are fish were sitting right in 15 feet of water around small brush piles. Bait's of choice right now are un-weighted Flukes, small crank baits, and even a good topwater bite early and a blade bite in those same depths, shakey Jigs with craws, split shot rigs with small trick worms and floating trick worms are all getting the thumbs up!.. Fish are cruising and starting to make beds or on cold front days moving back to the next step down in depth. Just slow down and look at your electronics to tell you where they are.. Primary Bait: Un-Weighted Flukes are really coming into play now, calm days no weight, windy days weight the hook. Colors are all of the basics all Watermelon colors, green pepper, Pro Blue and all White. Make sure you dip the tail of your fluke in Chartreuse for some extra visibility. Look for chasing fish cast right to the fish allow to settle, small twitches fish like a jerk bait but keep it down in the 15 foot range. Fish just swim up and suck it in.. Early Morning before sun comes up over the hills. We are throwing a Spook Jr. or a Red Fin to these fish chasing shad. Like all white spooks, and the smoke Joe color red fin.. But change colors as the light changes.. Slow retrieve back to the boat was getting the bite.. Just keep it moving. Shakey Jigs with smaller worms in green pumpkin seems to work on the right day. Light to no bite on these guys as fish will pick it up and swim right at you. Also placing a zoom critter craw on a light 3/16 shakey jig foor my bedding fish.. Dip the pitchers in chartreuse and hang on.. Split shot rigs are working in these same areas on the really hard or high pressure days. Add a Zoom fish doctor 4" in green pumpkin and just drag the bait back to the boat.. Keep it moving seems to be best when you use the reel to drag it back. Bites are small pecks or no bite at all.. Small crank baits in blue gill colors and some craw colors are starting to work on these fish just hanging out waiting for the right time to spawn. Run these baits into the structure that worked today pretty good.. Bouncing off of brush piles would get the strike. A-Rigs with 5" smoke grubs or Fluke Jr's are working well in the wind with and without clouds, Wiggle Warts on Windy Days on these same Banks with timber will get your arm ripped off! Anytime strong wind have to give it a throw. Stay with basic Brown and Green Craw warts for best bite and action! Will report back on next outing.. Good Fishing Everyone.. Taneycomo Trout Fishing is getting better.. Trout fishing is on fire right now!!! Had a 60 plus fish day on Easter with 5 Persons! They were just on! Good sizes of fish and can be just plain simple to get a limit. Fish are ranging from 12 inches to some in the 20 plus inch range. Spot fishing seems to be the best with no current, or drifting with a fast current early is the only way to get your bite on!! Powerbait is still the ticket colors change everyday..
Good Fishing Everyone
