Hendo,
I was just up there on 10-12 August and the only action I could muster was in the early evenings (7:30-9:00 PM) stripers would go crazy on the surface near the dam area. I would just troll around and wait for the boiling water and head in that direction and keep casting topwater. I usually hit on about 5 or 6 a night in the 1-3 lb range.
Camping is great there, but the fishing is limited IMHO.
Good luck.

Sorry, I don't log on too often.
I was using an .5 oz electric blue Rat-L-Trap (not really top water, I guess) and a Rapala Skitter Pop.
When they are active on the surface like that, just about anything might do. The key is to cast as quick and frequent as possible.
BTW be careful of the rock hazards (marked with bouys) in the area.

WOW! Just that one fish would make the trip worth while.
I was happy with a few little nibblers up there. I'm glad things worked out for you.
Take care
