StriperDon-Nothing much will happen there until the middle of May. You can catch some white bass or sauger before that, but no striper or hybrids. As far as water levels, that depends on how much rough water you like to put up with. I like it about 12.5 with about 1/2 the gates open. I still have success up to about 17, but all gates are wide open and it is very rough.
Anything above 17 it gets flat out dangerous. I live in Owensboro and fish the **** all the time.
E-Mail me if you have anymore questions, or if you want to know if they are on.
