Submitted by Joe Bob Shook (ip 24.92.125.151)
Date Fished: 2/23/2002
Water Temperature: 45
Water Clarity: 2-3 feet Fished the ABA tourney yesterday. Weather was Great. Temperature was in the low 70's at weigh-in. Water tempertature started at 45 and reached 51 later in the day. That is the best of the day. My partner got one bite, it was a 20 plus pound striper. We started at the dam and fished to just past Kettle Top. Fished the rocks from 5 feet to 45 feet. We used grubs, tubes, spoons and 4 in worms. We slowed down our presentation, nothing worked. During the meeting the night before, many fishermen were wondering if any fish would be caught. I did not wait for weigh-in. There were many boats checking in and going directly to the ramp to load their boat. Hopefully, it will get better. Back to the striper, I was told by the Parks and Wildlife people that stripers would only eat shad, this one inhaled a brown grub.
