The best bet for a striped bass has been to soak cut sardines, anchovies, or jumbo live shiners. When the water is moving fast try flat sinkers that don’t roll along the bottom. Catfish fell for chicken liver, dip bait, and cut sardines on the bottom, and bass anglers reported tough conditions while fishing with finesse baits in the eddies before and after check gates.
