Gear for this water
It has been a while since the trucks came. The holdovers have spread out and wised up; downsize and fish natural.
For the striped bass and hybrids (hybrid striped bass (wiper) stocked 1 time here in 2026, stillwater)
| Flutter spoons and swimbaits | match the shad; count down to suspended fish |
| Live or cut shad | the reservoir standard where legal |
| Topwater walkers | early mornings when they push bait to the surface |
Suggestions follow from what the state actually stocks here and what kind of water it is, nothing else. No sponsored placements.
