    Questin for McAlpine fall striper specialist

    Was thinking about going over to McAlpine tonight.
    They have only one generator running today and yesterday.

    Do you think it is worth going with only one generator on?

    they are running 2.5 at the lower site.

    For some reason I just don't like the sound of that. I spent over 45 minutes trying to explain that to my wife, and will be sleeping in the van tonight.

    Right with the exception of the area from the face of the hydro plant extending perpendicular to each end down stream 50 yards to the first wing dam/dike on the Kentucky side. I filed a claim to that long ago with her Majesty the Queen before Lewis and Clark had ever dreamed of cruising the river.

    Peter get there early and carve you out a spot, RUDENESS is at an all time high down there right now for cut off guys. Sometimes the fish will be in a small area and when the spothawgs see ya catch one or two they decend like buzzards on a dead carcass. Be afraid of the pontoon, be very afraid, lol. All that being said everything Doug said is true ans we've caught a ton of fish down there this year. I even have a secret weapon... no really I do just ask riverat12 so I can't show you that one. They can be on the surface, really fun if that happens, or mid level or near the bottom. Just experiment and you'll find a few or maybe the motherload. Be patient as it can be dead forours and all the sudden it's on for an hour. We'll look for ya down there tonight, Chuck aka riverrat12 and myself will be in a 14 foot V-bottom probably huntin the next world record whiskered fish. Chuck is the big guy in the back with more hair than barber shop on late Saturday afternoon and I'm a real ugly fat guy in the front with a blue hat on. See ya there, hey Doug you coming down???
