New Hogan

Striper action remains good. Despite the full moon we are experiencing nice catches of line sides 5 to 7lbs. The Stripers are holding in the main lake between the boat ramp, Deer point, and the dam, 30 to 50 feet deep. Where also catching a few channel cat fish in the eight pound class. Rolling Shad and Anchovy with Pro-Cure jell is producing good numbers. Buck tail with a stripe of Anchovy has also worked well.

Thank You,

Pro-Cure fresh water shrimp was our corn...... Read More
