Cumberlan River Striper Help

[motalot]

I would like to try for the Stripers on the River. I plan on fishing redfins from Burkesville to Tenn. Any help would be appreciated because I don't know what the heck I am doing.


Thanks in advance

I'm very interested in this too. As soon as I find a boat I see myself spending alot of time down there. Ted

There was a recent program on the In Fishermen series on TV fishing with storm swim baits. they were around the tenn line casting to laydowns strait out and the pulling them a bit down stream as they drifted down stream and caught fish in the mid 20s'(with a good flow). it is probably to late in the year to pull big skippies next to the bank on planer boards for the monster fish,gizzard shad smaller size should work better. And if their is really a slow flow consider fishing cut shad or skipjacks on the bottom at the drop off to deeper pools.
