Fishing The River

I'm thinking about heading out to the river after work today (unless the wind is blowing 30). Are there any whites or hybrids left up in the river? I'm launching my canoe at twin, but I've got a trolling motor and am thinking about running up Richland. This time of year, the key is finding a pack of Asian guys. I hear that's the best indicator of where the fish are.

I was up the White on a Striper trip last week, definitely are still Stripers up there. No one was around either, only other boat we saw all day was another striper boat. We wereseveral miles upstream from the 412 bridge, but as I don't know the landmarks in that area I can't be more helpful. Water was up and muddy, but the stripers did not seem to mind.

What did you catch your fish on? I drove over the river last night. The water is deffinitely up and off color, but it's backed up fron the lake and it appears a little clearer than I would have expected.

We were fishing shad and small Bream for bait. Two ounce egg sinker, five foot leader and slow troll up and down the river.
