Kind of depends on the weather but I like the April full moon on into May. Several good ramps depending on the area of the lake you're interested in.
To be honest I'm not sure what part of the lake. I thought about the lower end?? I would really like to catch some smallies, never caught one before. What's a good bait that time of year 3/8 oz spinnerbait, shallow diving CB in the creeks?? Any help would be nice.
Thanks
my best luck has come in mid to late April
I have always put in at Kimberling City....good ramp,good parking. I would fish the lower lake for smallmouths. Try the Indian point area and Cow creek. Smallies love pea gravel points . Throw a tube or grub on a jighead on 8lb seaguar. Pitch an eakins jig to any cover,docks,cedars,brush, etc...
Is there ever a goodtime for Table Rock...
If you're after smallmouth, 1/4 ounce darthead and 4" or 5" smoke grub is always good on the Rock. Here's an excellent article by a local guide. http://ozarkanglers.com/forums...=9675

I'll have to agree with 05champ, Table Rock is an awesome lake. A little research before you hit the water, can go a long way.

But it still is fishing, and there's no guarantees.

Thanks for the great link David!
kb here i like the time of the last week of april to middle of may. i fish the area of the st james river. aunts creek and little aunts creek spinnerbait, rouges,
drop shot and all points and ther are plenty of them and pea gravel.depends on the temp of course but if its real cold i go father up the river. have been going this for years only in the spring and never have fished on the branson side of the kimberling bridge never had to love those smalls and spots i have allways stayed at a small fishing camp nice cabins and leave the boat in there covered slip called oak hill resort. kb not going this year. but if you want any more info on that part of lake i have a hot spot map marked that i will loan you kb
