Stripers...

[Mike jones]

For you guys that like to chase stripers and whites...the whites were schooling wide open by 12 bridge this morning. And we saw a handful of stripers blow ups too. Looked like some Giants!!

Just my luck I was over around pt 6 looking for stripers and struck out.

I was down by Horseshoe last night and they were coming out of the water about 3 feet high around dark. I would troll over to where they came up and they were gone. Then they would repeat about 200 yards away, that went on from 7:30 until 9:00 and I didn't get one white or striper. Seems they were coming up from 30-40 feet hitting shad balls that were 10-20 feet deep then going right back down, could not graph a big fish less that 50 feet deep. I trolled bomber long As all over that area hoping the size would get them to come up with no success at all, if I had had some 8in gizzard shad I am sure I could have got one.

Gar feeding on top everywhere around dark and did get a few spots out in 90 feet of water. It was really cool to watch the stripers come up out of the water all together sometimes 10 at a time just like synchronized swimmers. I have fished that lake for 15 years and never saw anything like that.

Right now with the shad spawning I am convinced the all the fish start feeding at dark when the shad start moving in and stop about a hour after sun rise when the shad go back deep. If you want to net shad you will have to do it before sunrise.

I'd like to get into some whites.  Thanks for the report

The whites by 12 bridge were very catchable. Super spook

jr or red fin. Saw a guy trolling crankbaits catch some too. There were busting in huge schools like stump said they were around Horseshoe.

I'm going to get some rain gear on and hit it Tuesday
