If anyone can help out, I can help out with a good crappie spot.

Wish I could offer better advise, but have also had a tough time finding the stripers lately myself. Last time out was a weekago this past Thursday, Oct 8th. Started out across from Indian Creek, but nothing. Moved up the lake and finally picked up 3 fish in main lake trolling past the mouth of Lily and Wolf Creeks around mid day (after a breif shower). One 23" short fish on a planner board/shiner, a 29" fish on a planner board/shiner and a 31 inch fish on a 4 inch swim bait. All at around 15 - 30 feed deep. On Wed the 7th, pulled planner boards in the early am along North shore from Indiana Creek to Rowana and never did see a fish or any bait to speak of.

Below are links to a couple of recent reports from local guides. Hope this is helpful and you get on some fish. Thinking I may go out again on Sunday, don't have game plan other than run/hunt and pull boards in and around the creek mouths.
