Grandson wants to try out his hand at striper fishing and I haven’t fished Murray in several years. I’m thinking main lake around dam and will be looking for bait , who/whats available in dam area ??? thanks in advance…
Ned’s better bait jakes landing rd. Behind the shell station. Plenty of fish in the big pond I’ve caught them in main river channel and caught them on the humps. If you have navionics do some looking around near the (**() area for some humps around 55-60 ft or even 70ft near the river channel. The bait has been small lately at the bait stores and it’s just one of those years but they are bighting them just need to downsize your hooks lighter wire hooks helps. I don’t like big herring for down rods anyway but about 4 inches is perfect imo but they have been smaller than that just got to go with the flow. Also all the herring that does on your hook save them and chum heavy while your spot locked i use a pair of sissors and cut them in small pieces I even sacrifice a few from the bait tank. I’ve marked some big schools of fish lately that wouldn’t eat so don’t get discouraged if your marking and not bighting eather wait them out for a little while or move along and find some fish that will bight. Tight lines and good luck
Just reel or get broke
Dam area not (**() I spelled dam wrong like the curse word and it did that lol
Just reel or get broke
