Fished on Wateree this past weekend. Catfish seemed to be active, caught 5 channels 4 to 8 lbs on shad. Also picked up two small stripers on an umbrella rig.

Been trying to figure out the stripers on this lake, been 4 times now and have caught 5 total from 1 lb to 3 lbs. I've been all over the lake at various depths trying different strategies from slow troll /drift with live bait, jigging, and trolling (deep dive crank bait, umbrella rigs, Bucktail with grub, and a rig with both a bucktail and spoon. Water temp was from low 60s to low 80s. Any suggestions?

Also interested in trying out some crappie fishing here.....
