Table Top Reservoir is a reservoir in Malheur County, Oregon.
Use the shape you can see at Table Top Reservoir: check the best cover, the first drop, and one open-water line before moving.
Fish listed for Table Top Reservoir include Bluegill, Brown Bullhead, Largemouth Bass, Redside Shiner, and Rainbow Trout.
During a careful second pass near a firm-bottom flat while the water is rising, use a small jig, worm, or tiny plastic around green weeds and protected pockets for bluegill.
During a methodical search near a creek-side turn while the water is falling, work a soft plastic, jig, or spinnerbait around weeds and protected cover for largemouth bass.
During a warm summer afternoon near the edge of deeper water where two features meet, use a worm on the bottom in a warm, quiet pocket during low light for brown bullhead.
During an overcast morning near a creek-side turn before changing areas, cast a small spoon, inline spinner, light jig, or fly through cool water for rainbow trout.
During a check of nearby water near the mouth of a pocket under flat light, use wind as a clue; a light push can carry food toward a bank, but hard wind may muddy it, so look for a clean edge near a point or protected pocket.
During a steady fall day near the outside weed line where food is present, spring fishing starts with warming banks, creek mouths, and shallow cover; summer usually pushes the better bite toward the outside weed edge or a nearby drop; fall can bring bait back to windblown points, while winter calls for smaller moves and a slower pace.
During a careful second pass near the outside weed line while the water is rising, a light spinning rod, thin line, a few small spoons, inline spinners, and jigs cover the listed trout; carry one slightly heavier setup when other fish or windy water call for more control.
During a short evening pass near a channel bend where two features meet, record the wind, water color, depth beside useful cover, and cover after a bite; those four notes are more useful on the next trip than a long list of spots that did not produce.
