    Default Hickory Stripers?


    Anybody doing any good with stripers on Hickory? Thought about taking the wife on Saturday. Thought this cooler weather may have churned them a little. She sure does miss fishing there since we moved. It is about 2.5 hour drive so would feel better if somebody was catching a few.

    Last two times I pulled cranks at hr there was one guy pulling Alabama rigs or buck tails the whole time and I never saw him catch one.

    Hickory is a 50/50 success rate, it all depends if rhodhiss dam is pulling water. With the drought we've had, unlikely.

    I've been fishing Clarks Hill. Its been good. Caught 45 last saturday and 30 last sunday. Most of them 18-20 inchers with a few 5-6 lbers mixed in.
    Murray is good now too A buddy of mine went this week and user 6 dozen herring in 4 hours. No keepers.
