A guy, who owns one of the local sporting goods stores, said the stripers are surfacing in the cooler water feeding on baitfish in Cherokee Lake. From his description I think they are probably moving up the lake along the river. They are being caught on live shad, Long A Bombers, and even on some Spooks and bass lures. He also mentioned that when they are feeding on shad, there are several stripers together. One fisherman caught 5 that were in the 12-15 pound range about a week ago; they were near the surface and he was trolling a Long A Bomber.
