Table Rock Lake, June 8-12 2016

[Ronald]

Over 200 ft in some spots lol

how deep are the coves? (For anchoring purposes)?

Table Rock is a deep lake. It really depends on the cove. I've been in some coves, where I'm 30 feet off the bank and in 50 foot of water

 

[Ronald]

The best is when you cruise over a shallow point of 15 ft.....and your 100 yards of the shore lol...

@CDENsomnia i think near kimberling city bridge...there were 2 in the running. Easy jog for us. What day you arriving?..water was warmer today

We arrive on Wednesday!

 

[Ronald]

@007 where you staying?

 

[007]

Silverleaf Ozark Mountain Resort Condos just south of the bridge off of 13.

I'm digging the raft up location choices. Short commute for me!

As an aside, any good or bad place to get gas off the water near Kimberling City? The boat is mostly empty, I'd rather tow it that way and fill it there unless gas is outrageously costly or poor quality.

 

[Ronald]

I always buy on the water. Kimberling marina is good. I never had an issue..plus its fun to dock perfectly as i think most there are waiting for the jet boat to have problems docking..im always happy to disappoint them lol
But therebis a gas station on your right before crossing the bridge for convenience.

There are several locations in Branson West or just outside Branson West on your way to Kimberling City. The Mule Express at DD and 13 is usually the highest in the area but coming from St. Louis you will find several places just before you get to the lake.

And way cheaper gas here then st Louis too lol

Thanks guys for the info. I'm pretty darn good at the gas docks, must have been all those years as a jet boat pilot, lol. . That being said, its only pretty and graceful if I approach on the starbaoard side...inboards don't back to the left!

 

[mattschepker]

@007 we just watch the gas prices on the way down to Table Rock. I forget the exit but it's on 44 before you hit 65 we usually have to fill up the truck and that's when we fill up the boat for the rest of the journey.

 

[Jim Robeson]

Just some idea of what gas is running right now...have no idea what they are charging on the water.

 

[Ronald]

We need make this annual bigger then shelbyville. This lake is way better

Last year, I could not get my anchor to touch bottom with a 100 ft of rode at the swings. I was just about 50 ft away. Purchased 200 ft rode just for Table Rock.

 

[Ronald]

I got a digger break away anchor this year..no more anchor retrieval dance for me.

I have to get all of these done this weekend before I can even think about loading the boat.
