Mike jones Posted May 29, 2015 Posted May 29, 2015 Was running down the lake early yesterday morning and there was tons of people striper fishing in the Rocky Branch area. Talked to a couple guys that caught a few on top water. And I know of a 27 pounder caught this morning on top.

Dan the fisherman Posted May 29, 2015 Posted May 29, 2015 I'm pretty much done trolling till fall but, man I love casting top water at big striper. I may wake up early on a Saturday and head that way.
J-Doc Posted May 29, 2015 Posted May 29, 2015 Trolling isn't working for me anymore either. Even white bass won't hit a trolled bait in years past, they were like the seagulls on the "Finding Nemo" movie. You couldn't get a trolled bait past them without them hitting it. I honestly think everyone is trolling a lot more on the lake than years past and that pressure may have created some flak. I could be wrong but there is a definite difference and quite noticeable. Also, I see tons of people trolling now where it used to be just pleasure boats and bass anglers. Need marine repair? Send our own forum friend "fishinwrench" a message.

Dan the fisherman Posted May 29, 2015 Posted May 29, 2015 Very true doc. I see a lot more trollers out there. Me being one actually. I've started trolling in fall for stripers 3 winters ago. I don't troll all year but, sure enough as the leaves start to Change so will my fishing tactics. I'll be out there dragging minnow around. Chasing the "big one"!

Moswimb8slinger Posted June 2, 2015 Posted June 2, 2015 8 inch Spro bbz1 floater? I may come down this weekend. The striper bite is failing to produce on Bull Shoals up at PowerSite dam. I'm itching for another big fish.
