Barkley stripers

[trentonc2000]

I'm fishing a tournament with a buddy yesterday and while we were fishing our first spot, the whole lake behind us just explodes with shad, stripers and sea gulls. We forgot about the tournament for the next hour or so and pretty much caught a striper 4-6 pounds on every other cast. we ended up 4th in the tournament, but didn't care. I don't get into schooling stripers like that often and had a blast.

Where on Barkley? I love catching those when they are schooling like that. I caught a 4 lb SMALLIE in the mouth of Crocket Creek on Sunday. I got there at about 2pm and fished till 4pm, and caught 5 keepers and a bunch of 13-14 inch fish. It was a good time.
