I went to lake Oliver on the Hooch, yesterday. Old haunts where they normally spawn. No fish. The water temp was in the low 60s. Cant believe it is going to be long now. Caught a few small stripers on ultralight. That was the hi light of my day. Moved up river in the afternoon to lake harding, caught a limit if small crappie, dock shooting. I believe they have moved to deeper water. Got a new fly rod that I want to break in on the crackers. I will keep you posted .

Jim Hatch over at FAOL spent a lot of time fishing for them on Santee Cooper. He said a small scud imitation was his best fly by far. I think he's kind of "retired" from fishing, though, and moved on to other things. But he's a kayak man, too, Steve. You two should have a lot in common! Email him or send him a PM.
