    cherokee stripers

    Has anyone ben doing any rock fishing lately? I have ben going 2-3 times a week and have ben doing very well but I have found the pattern seems to be a little off this year and the fish running small anyone catching any with any size? I have caught an 18, and two 16 but most of the catch has ben hybrids with the rock averaging 8-10.

    thats ben the size most of mine have ben running. I am still fishing up the lake around 16 and am not catching anything after 7:30 a.m. and I have heard that there catching some around 9. I have tried the areas your fishing and have not had any luck there yet this year are you catching any numbers of fish? Im starting to get tired of putting in at the **** and running 16.2 mi. up the lake. Most of what i've ben catching are in big schools so the action is hot when you find them we've ben catching 3 and 4 at a time but like I said around 7-7:30 might as well go home. Also i have ben seeing some monsters come to the surface but cannot get them to hit anything.
