Launched after 7am today water levels have risen and I was reading 60-61 water temps. Marked numerous fish on the troll in the main channel 15-25' range but they had lock jaw for us. We saw numerous boats at the dam so the bait bite is on for small stripers- some of the boats were mostly getting the fish on livers. We hanged around mostly at the inlet-water is coming in pretty good, lossed a very nice fish in 24' of water broke me off on the run but it was my fault for tying a bad knot, reeled in a curly que. My brother from Mass was not used to seeing small land locked stripes since they have a 28" minimum there in the NE. We headed back on the troll and around mid lake North side in 30' water we got a small one on the white fly. Good luck out there the schoolie stripes are biting.

Thanks for posting! Yeah they're spoiled on the east coast with their tanker stripers, I don't think they have the dink problem like we do.
