It is not a release dam. It will be flowing over the top. Good possibliy it is. And, yes there use to be alot of stripers and hybrids below the dam.

Hooking a fish is like playing string with a cat. The exact size, shape, color of string matters less than how you wiggle it- and little cats are easier to fool than big ones. John Gierach
