Fishing

Large numbers of largemouth, smallmouth, Kentucky spotted bass and white bass thrive in its diverse underwater structure and immense forage base. Bass, crappie and large bluegill are caught in abundance. Catfish of all sizes also roam the lake bottom.

The lake’s waters never freeze, welcoming visitors’ activities year round. Table Rock Lake is known as the clean, clear, warm and blue lake. In the spring, you run into some of the most aggressive bass, crappie, walleye, catfish, spoonbill you will find anywhere. They grow big in a hurry by feasting on baby shad and bluegills.

Crest Lodge offers fishing guide service and boat rentals and private dock facilities for guests’ boats as well.

Table Rock Lake has it all. Nationally known, it offers challenges to the serious fisherman and just plain fun for the not-so-serious sportsman. Bass, crappie, bluegill and catfish are plentiful. And remember, the best fishing is in the Spring and Fall! Bring your own rig or rent one of ours. Reserve one of our fishing boats or our pontoon boat for an enjoyable day of family fun. Our covered dock has a slip just for you boat!

If you enjoy tournament fishing, Crest Lodge Resort hosts spring and fall buddy bass tournaments.
