Striper fishing is good mid-lake on south on the dam. Main areas include islands, tabletop, west burns, east burns. Live bait fishing is good in the mornings on late evenings. Use black salties, goldfish, shiners, or live shad. If short on bait use cut bait, it has been producing fish as well. Also at early morning and late evening, striped bass have begun surfacing making for some great topwater fishing. When this feeding frenzy is going lure choice is not important as they will hit almost anything. Lots of small blue cats will follow behind schooling striper picking dead bait along the bottom. Tailwaters- Striped bass are still being caught on mostly cut bait or whole bait in the edge of the current. Blues are being caught on the same thing when fished along the bottom. I’ve noticed some nice flatheads being caught on live perch. Report submitted by Trey Hale, game warden stationed in Bryan County.
