[Scout'nStripers]

I got out this morning around 8am and hit the main lake humps and points. I lost count today and caught some good ones. Topwater, drop shot and spybait was my successful baits today. I turned the video camera on for a few fish this morning.

Thanks guys.
Tarpfisher, hard to say on the color. I just cycle through about 4 different colors. I like American Shad, Ghost Minnow, Ghost Pearl and Ghost XS Shad

Me Too! Yesterday morning the lake was glassed over making it hard to catch a topwater fish. That popper really fools them when it's like that. If you can stand the heat these fish are pushing those bluebacks to the surface in the heat of the day. A lot of my stops were only 5-10 minutes in the hottest part of the day.

The quickest way is to drive down to the Bufford Dam Bait and Tackle. They are about a mile or so west of the dam on the corner of Buford Dam Rd and Lanier Beach South. They have them in stock. Right now my shop is being remodeled and all of my painting and lure making tools are packed away. My neighbor makes the poppers now and probably will till after we get moved into our new lake house in late fall.
