Ready to do traffic duty.
I have a video clip that I took last spring of a Striper that came out of the deep hole that starts at the end of Cap’s which is 2 properties down stream from CVC. I have heard from other people that they have seen Stripers in some of the deep area’s from #5 all the way back to the dam. The Stripers I see are in April, May and June. I see them between 7:00 AM and 10:00 AM. Remember this is what I have seen or heard.
In the last two years I have hooked into five or six stripers. The one thing that is common with every striper that I have had on my line is that As soon as they know they are hooked they take off for the deep water as fast as they can. You need at least a 12 lb. Tippet so they don’t break the line. Even using 12 lb. Tippet they still straightened out #12 hooks. I used a 10’ 4 wt Thomas and Thomas zone fly rod that held up very well. I was using a 1/64 oz lead head that had the #12 hook and fitted it with a 2” yellow unsented Mr. twister. These stripers were around at least 30” long. I was not able to bring anyone of them in as they always broke something. I hope this is helpful. They sure are fun for as long as you can hold them.
I will be there to help with traffic.

If you have watched any of David Atenburoughs’s wild life programs fish can communicate with each other. There has been more than one program where it shows a grouper going up to a moray eel or an octopus and using fin movements and body movements asking these other sea creatures to go hunting for food. I don’t think it’s out of the realm of possibility that the fish tell other fish not to strike what you are using.
I will be there to do traffic if needed.
