Plan on staying at the state park starting on Monday. What are the patterns right now for the striper and hybrid and sandbass are the feeding early on top then going down deep by like 9, that's been the pattern for Whitney was wondering if it was the same? Also if you know if live bait is the key right now or artificial have not fished this lake this year so any help would be great not looking for spots just info thanks.

live bait is the ticket. I try not to use live bait but some area is just snag city, unless you don't mind fishing for treebass

I agree live bait is best. We did catch some good hybrids on RSR 1 1/2 oz. jighead with chartreuse 4" swimbait when I was there a couple of weeks ago.

we aren't having all that much top water action in the AM, but i'd say live bait should do the trick once the sun gets up

Called Andrew a couple of weeks ago but he's booked up. Called Joe Read on a Wed. and got lucky. He had a cancellation for that Friday. We caught em with live bait in the mid lake treetops fishing 30 foot straight down. Sandbass weren't grouped well for us though. Tried about 8 areas and only managed about 10. Great trip though. I learned a lot as I always do when I go with a guide.

If Joe is fishing live bait, it's probably required!

How do you rig up with live bait (hooks, leader, weight, etc).
