Water temp 69-70 / cold and dodging rain / 15 plus NW wind / cloudy / temp 60 degrees

The striped bass and blue back herring have completely moved from Beaver Dam creek from the day before. Searched to the South side of Anderson island and found a few fish creek between T1 and T3. Fish were busting shallow w/ no bait seen. Caught one nice fish 17 plus over 110 foot in middle of creek channel. Next moved to Southern tip of Anderson Island next to S1. Good school would surface every 10 minutes or so. Managed 3-5 fish with a few good largemouth mixed in. Later found fish up small pocket near broyles landing. Had good action for about 25 minutes putting about 10 in the boat. Ended the day with about 15 stripers. There is great bait and a few fish up 6 and 20 just after the I 85 bridge.

Fishing Tip: Fish have been coming up and busting good anywhere from Anderson island to the dam, with some schools the size of football fields seen. Have a top-water plug - Sammy - for hair jig ready.
