The best Striper fishermen year round in that Lake is a guide. He Flycores for them! (Leadcore line and a fly) If you can't figure it out yourself how to do it. Hire him once and take careful notes on how he does it! Trust me it makes a difference, if you know what the experts do!

I'm with you. I bought a boat recently as well. I've been looking hard. No success.
Would love to know what others are doing to catch 'em.
bait type; chovies or dines? hook sizes, line weight and type, style; flyline or bb's? Areas?
Trolling lure types? colors? Speed trolled at 2.5 or 3 MPH. Surface or downrigged? Depth? Areas?
Any help at all would be great. A guide service may be the answer. Perhaps with someone who fishes in a conventional manner rather than with leadcore line and flys????

Yes, see you out there some time. Btw Greg Silks Inland guide service I used few years ago and he did a striper seminar at Last Chance B&T too.
