    Nice walleye.

    Anyone know if/what time of night stripers are hitting top? Or if shad are coming up?

    Was down in early April and just got them on slivers. I would like to narrow down a time....kind of tuckered with turkey season and work.

    My group and I will be there in a couple of weeks to fish the night bite for Stripers. Any info would be great.

    Thanks

    Caught a few last night on slivers, but never threw anything else either. We found a few shad, but it wasn't heavy action & very few fish busting either. 2 different boats we talked to that fished the same area we did said they never found shad any whatsoever. Although they weren't big we had a few striper, 2 nice walleye, a spot & a smallmouth. A good top water bite would be nice.

    Main lake or creek? Time?

    We fished about 1/2 way back a creek last week. Did OK...not great by any means. Most action was late 1:30 - 4:30 AM.

    Creek & about half way back, but when the sky got totally clear it ended pretty quick. I believe the fronts passing through are hurting it more then anything right now. I think a period of steady barometric pressure with a sliver to a quarter of moonlight would really help right now.

    So many variables to this type fishing. But, it can be summed up...nice weather in April/May...GO!
