Weekly Fishing Report (July 31, 2026) — Table Rock Lake
Cranking season is in full swing on Table Rock. Coy Hines' latest weekly report covers what's biting, where to find them, and the exact baits to throw — straight from the boat.
This Week's Conditions on Table Rock
Bass have settled into a strong post-spawn pattern. Coy is marking schooled fish in the 15 to 18 foot range on main-lake points and secondary points wherever bait is holding. Watch your graph — when you see the bait, the fish are usually right under it.
What's Biting and Where
- Shaky head all day — main-lake and secondary points, working the inner sections. Steadier producer than topwater.
- Glide baits still in play — the big-bite window isn't closed. Bigger profiles upgrade your limit.
Lures & Techniques
Shaky Head — Magnum Finesse Trick Worm
The bread-and-butter all week: a Zoom Magnum Trick Worm (or a Magnum Finesse Worm) in watermelon candy or green pumpkin on a shaky head. Any quality shaky head jig will do — drag, hop, deadstick on the pause. When the topwater bite cools off, this is the rod you pick up.
Glide Baits — The Big-Bite Card
The glide-bait bite isn't over. Coy specifically called out Mag Drives as a way to upgrade your limit. We've been moving them fast — ask Wes at the shop about size and color.
