I assume you were fishing live shad using a Carolina rig set up? Did you fish by the dam?

Jims been downrigging recently. Not sure about the OP's trip though. I will say one thing about Jim if you want to learn how to cut bait for stripers give him a call. I learned more fishing a couple of Tournaments with him cut baiting than years of trying myself. He is a hell of a fisherman and just an all round good guy. Ask him about his arrowhead collection. Its world class.

I went downrigging last weekend using live shad and came up empty. Apparently when you troll on Buchanan it's best to use white and yellow buck tail jigs. Live shad are best on a Carolina rig around the humps and points.

Something to try instead of downriggers is use planer boards with shad. Big Gizzards work best. I use the WaterBugz boards. I run three to a side. Stroll along with the trolling motor. Here is the website and there is a pretty good instructional video. http://www.waterbugz.com/
