Omnia Fishing Report: Table Rock Lake Pre-Spawn Action So here’s the lowdown from Table Rock. Got a little late start,yeah, had to snap some glam shots of the boat since she’s about to hit the market. Finally launched and rigged up, and by 8:30 I made that first cast. Of course, the fish decided to play heartbreaker right out of the gate, missed a couple on the minnow, but hey, that’s fishing. Spent the next chunk of the morning doing a little detective work for those jig fish. We combed through main lake points, secondary points, even those sneaky little points tucked in the back of creeks. Honestly, it was a bit of a ghost town in some spots. But persistence paid off, by the afternoon, we got dialed in and nailed a nice 5 pounder on a Motion Fishing Flash Mob football jig. That got the momentum rolling. Found a few more areas with fish pushing over three pounds and got into a groove. Secondary rocky points seemed to be the ticket for these nice sized bass. Foot By the time the wind picked up, we switched to a Spro Rock Crawler and started pulling them in that 6-10 foot range on rocky banks. Basically, Table Rock’s shaping up for a sweet pre-spawn bite. If you’re heading out, check out the hot baits I mentioned and don’t forget to use code Luke10 to save yourself 10% on all your Omnia Fishing gear.

We rigged and rip-jigged the break line off of several rock piles in 8-16’ with suckers. Fish were aggressive because the water was still very warm for this time of year. They also were deeper than anticipated.

We fished a shallow flat (7’ and under) with lots of weeds. The bluegills and crappies were aggressive. Finding pockets in the weeds and jigging aggressively was key.

We drilled out a break line with sparse vegetation (5’-13’). Crappies were high in the water column and aggressive. Bluegills took more work to commit.

Was throwing around different musky baits all week and finally was able to latch onto my PB, only a 36 incher, but a real fat one. A fight for a lifetime, the 10K casts paid off.

Snap jiggin for walleyes is one of the most satisfying feelings in the world, this walleye snagged it up right off bottom and was released to fight another day. When you can, I would highly suggest getting out there and try snap jiggin them up.

Was snap jigging for walleyes when this big mama grabbed onto the jigggin rap and gave me a reel solid run. I think I fought this one for about 10 min on the super light line, drag was ripping which is music to my ears.
