I haven't gotten much stripers in that spot lately, ive been doing well in other spots downstream. Perhaps this is because its still early and the bass aren't as pushed up as far,in numbers? Maybe some seasons they just get lazy :P
Caught this yesterday waaay downstream. And today went a bit further up and only hooked up with a dink smallie and white perch.
They really like slooooow retrieves, almost dead sticking it in the current. Would suggest that over reeling it through the water.
