Anyone Been Out This Week?

[bferg]

Was on a solid Hybrid/White/Occasional striper bite around RB about a week and a half ago in the AM around RB- mainly top water. Anyone been in that area and seen any surface activity? Trying to plan where I am going to throw my swim baits tomorrow PM! Any report would be helpful...

I was out today, but I only fish for black bass, at least on purpose. Did okay today. Was out from about 6-11am in the Praririe Creek area. 8 bass, 3 over 2lbs (2 of which were hard fighting smallies). C-rigs, popr's, drop shot were the main baits, but I caught one on a McStick, too.

Water is clearing up, finally. After like a year! I did see a fair amount of surface activity in the Avoca and PC coves.

Thanks Jeb...we have not figured out our plan yet...I am kinda thinking of going up by the dam and throwing a c-rig around for a bit...

I'm going to be heading down to Beaver on June 1st for a few days of Striper fishing with my son and would absolutely love any and all advice you old hands could give me. This will be my third year in a row chasing Beaver Lake Striper. I say chasing, because I've not been very successful. In fact, I've not caught a single Striper!! I've even installed two down riggers in my bass boat for trolling and still no success. I've been researching everything I can find on this site and others in order to improve my chances at nailing one of these beautiful fish. Can anyone tell me what part of the lake I should be concentrating on in early June? Are these fish going to be in the mid lake area or down by the dam? Should I scrap the down rigger's and just go with live Shad on a balloon rig? Just looking for any and all advice....would really like to catch one of these monsters...

Thanks
