Table Rock Report
Table Rock Report
October 28, 2025
Well hey yโ€™all โ€” fallโ€™s rollinโ€™ through the Ozarks and them Table Rock bass are feedinโ€™ like theyโ€™re late for supper! Water temps been droppinโ€™ down into the upper 60s, and thatโ€™s got them fish movinโ€™ from the backs of creeks out to them points, rocky ledges, and brush piles in 10 to 25 feet. Early morninโ€™, youโ€™ll still find a few up shallow bustinโ€™ shad, but once the sun gets to smilinโ€™, they slide off a little deeper. Weโ€™ve been hammerinโ€™ โ€˜em this week on:Crankbaits in shad and crawfish colors. Bounce โ€˜em off rocks and hang on!Spinnerbaits & chatterbaits when the windโ€™s kickinโ€™ โ€” that flash gets โ€˜em fired up.And if youโ€™re out before sunrise, donโ€™t forget a good olโ€™ topwater popper โ€” theyโ€™re smashinโ€™ it! Fishinโ€™s been solid all across the lake โ€” from Dam to Shell Knob and up the White River arm. If you find baitfish stackinโ€™ up, them bass ainโ€™t far behind. Windy banks and main-lake points are money right now! Olโ€™ Captain Spencerโ€™s been runninโ€™ trips every day, and the biteโ€™s been hotter than a cast iron skillet in July. Folks are reelinโ€™ in largemouth, spots, and smallies like itโ€™s nothinโ€™. Ainโ€™t nothinโ€™ better than a cool fall morninโ€™, a bent rod, and them Ozark hills glowinโ€™ orange and gold around ya. If youโ€™re wantinโ€™ to get out here before the weather turns cold and them fish tuck deep for winter, nowโ€™s the time! Weโ€™ll bring the boat, the gear, and the know-how โ€” you just bring your hat, your fishinโ€™ arm, and a good attitude. Book your fall trip now at **hidden content** Letโ€™s go catch a mess of bass and make some stories youโ€™ll be tellinโ€™ all winter.See yโ€™all on the water โ€” and remember, if your rod ainโ€™t bendinโ€™, youโ€™re just pretendinโ€™! #breakingbassguideservice

Fishing can be hit or miss with the fall transitional weather patterns. Having a good guide can make all of the difference.

Branson is a Great fishing destination due to the large variety of species and access to both beautiful Table Rock lake and the 50 degree water of Taneycomo. If you are planning your trip in the summertime heat, hit Table Rock in the cooler morning or evening and fish the cold water of Taneycomo in the heat of the day and take advantage of cooling of with the cold water

Fishing early in the morning is best for cooler weather in August. If youโ€™re not from Missouri, the heat is pretty harsh along with the humidity in August.

It was HOT. We jumped in the water a couple of times to cool off and that was fun. Wear appropriate clothing to get wet.

Fishing can be great and sometimes fishing can be slow. But when youโ€™re spending time on the water with your family fishing and laughing and making memories itโ€™s not always about how many and how big of fish you catch. And it makes it even better when you get the right guide to take you out! Captain Brien is highly recommended!

Book during the week if possible. Weekends have more skiers and wakeboards that cause the water to be choppy.
