Red banks area

[Person01]

Hello, I’m new to fishing Norfork lake. I utilize the red banks access of the lake. I would like to try and catch some Striper or hybrids. Any chance of getting into these fish on that portion of the lake? From my understand most are either at the dam or up the Norfork river but I’m hoping some hang out around red banks.

As the water gets hotter yes they will move to deep holding areas for the year. The "Niles" and Brier crk (first big crk to south of Red Bank ramp on the west bank) are good spots in the spring along with the Flats above the Stateline on the west. There still should be some topwater action in the early mornings around those areas. I know during the Basscat tournament several guys were talking about surfacing activity along those deeper swings up there. 

Also Canfield area has some surface  activity and med depth drop baits  the last few days.
