We fished there several times for stripers. This time of year they are probably "draggin shad", slow trolling with live shad and in line planer boards. The tactics change with the season and temperature. When it gets hot the stripers go deep and some of the charters use down riggers. I would definitely recommend a charter for at least one day. The striper charters are not too expensive. Stripers are great to eat fried like walleye. It is a very deep lake and immediately drops off. If your going to fish for bass and pan fish it not the greatest spot.
