Unlike last week, I know why fishermen failed to show at the lake, but the weather brought good striper fishing to most of the fishermen we talked to. Trolling was the name of the game this past week for the striper, and East End was the best, but Ramp #2 did a close second, plus more reports of striper from shore near Ramp #2 as well. Bait wise for the striper chicken liver and anchovies seem to be working about the same. Still a few cats coming in as well, and a few were reported being caught from shore near Ramp#2 so don't be too surprised if you haul in a kitty while bait fishing for striper. Trout did well for those who tried. Powerbait was the bait of choice for most fishermen this past week. A few bass hitting baits as well along the South Shore and back up in the Easst End. Happy Holidays, Happy Fishing and Happy Tails.
