Local Fishing Insights

These powerful game fish thrive in the lake's deep, oxygen-rich waters and can grow to impressive sizes. Captain Brad employs various techniques depending on conditions, including live bait presentations, trolling, and occasionally artificial lures when the fish are particularly active.
The fishing patterns change seasonally, with stripers following baitfish migrations throughout the lake. During summer months, early morning and late evening trips are often most productive as the fish seek cooler water temperatures.
