Mcalpine dam fishing help

[peter]

I just started fishing the upper dam some the past few weeks. Been fishing off the fossil beds on the kentucky side some. Tried the hydros a little and the lower dam too.
Totally amazing place.
Just wanted to start a thread here and see what kinda help anyone can offer up.
New to the site as well. Googled some stuff on Mcalpine and got a few links to this site, so I thought I'd check it out for real.
I live in Lanesville, IN.

Havnt fished for cats yet. been kinda focusing on hybrids and strippers.

BTW. Havnt fished in 12 yrs. So I will be preety green on some stuff for a while. But am hooked for sure on the fishing down there.

Whats the word right now on what to do? been getting there between 4-5 am. and they seem to bite for a while. but then shut down quick.

Early in the morning and in the evening into the night. Evening when the sun hits the top of the trees is good.
