Stripers 3/15/2020
I apologize for posting a Striper report on our crappie forum, but I know that some of you are interested in the reports.
Slab, I promise not to post many of these Striper reports as I will get back to crappie fishing after the spawning run.
Phil and I took a new friend, Bill Grant, with us to Watts Bar dam to fish for Stripers. We landed 26, plus 4 Drum, and one channel catfish on 5” chartreuse plastics on 1/2 ounce shadhead jigs that I pour and paint.
Water temp was 51.9, water flow with 10 flood gates open was 68,000 cfs. Our biggest fish was 25 pounds, and a Phil and I had a double on that we had fun with. It looked like a Chinese fire drill in the boat as we safely landed 18 and 17 pound Stripers at the same time.
Bill had never caught a Striper before and the smile on his face when he caught his first fish was priceless. He later caught a 15 pound, 5 ounce Striper. He is hooked now.

Very nicely done. I'm sure you guys had a blast catchin' those beauties. Those baits closely resemble the 360 search baits that I plan to try on Jordan Lake stripers here in Central NC.
Are you casting and reeling those baits or are you trolling them at slow speeds?? Thanks for sharing your day with us.

The blind see and the lame walk; lepers are cleansed and deaf hear; dead are raised up and poor have the gospel preached to them.

Fish were located a few days ago and the pattern hasn’t changed yet, but will in two more days when they close the flood gates. This will move the fish. Then repeat over and over.
