Cherokee Lake Stripers and Hybrids

[Yank]

I fished Cherokee two to three times a week mostly for Stripers . I caught a few last year but this year only Hybrids and not that many .. They are still stocking Stripers . The fishing for Stripers has gone down hill . Last year there was a big Kill of Stripers at Mossey Creek . Over 250 Stripers . I have fished for Stripers for 20 years on Cherokee and the last two years have been the slowest . I just wonder if the building of homes on Cherokee has hurt the Striper fishing .?? Septic Tanks ?? Fertilizers on lawns . I guess it comes down to MONEY. I though it was me for while . Hope TWRA reads this .Are you one of the fishermen who fished with Pete this week>> YANK

No, I just have been fishing Cherokee since I was a kid. 25 plus years and I just assumed the stripers were being replaced by TWRA with Hybrids for some reason. I love catching Hybrids, but the huge stripers on Redfins at night were awesome.
