Fishing has been pretty consistent both shallow and deep. Lots of top water fish up shallow and the bigger schools are moving out to deeper water.
Drop shots and jigs are the best baits off the bank for some nice smallmouth and walleye!

After about a hour and 15 minutes we picked up and moved to a shaded area and proceeded to catch kentucky bass in about 25 ft drop shooting with crawlers. It lasted until all the big boats and skiers came out and it was time to go.They caught a number of kentucky bass with a couple of doubles and a good time was had by all.
A few other trips earlier in the week produced well all over different areas on Table Rock in about 25 ft that's the magic depth right now😊

Great time fishing with Captain Dan! We started hitting fish immediately. When they stopped biting he knew where to go to find more. Lots of fun!
