I made a run up to the Shoals this weekend throwing large top water lures in the white water for Striper. Didn't get a single hit, but saw a ton of boats and canoes up there. Many seemed to be after Striper as well, and some looked like they were fishing for white bass or crappie. Didn't see anyone really catching much. Although we did see one Striper brought in by a boat that was slowing trolling shad in the flat water below the shoals out in front Jaybird.
This is the 2nd weekend I have seen folks having success doing this, so I tried it for the first time myself on Saturday afternoon, and actually landed a small one myself. Figure I'll try it some more! I don't have all the normal gear/bait (fish finder/planers, shad,etc), so its a bit tougher but still can be done, just by slow trolling jumbo minnows.
Any Striper fisherman out there, want to give me some pointers to try and increase my success, but limit the cost? Budget planers? Best place to find large bait around Alex City and North end of lake?
