Fishing Techniques

  • For Striped bass

    Match the hatch! Pay attention to what the stripers are feeding on and select lures or baits that mimic the size and color of the local forage.

  • For White perch

    White perch often school, so if you catch one, stay in that area to find more. Vary your retrieve speed until you find what they prefer.

  • For White bullhead

    White bullheads are bottom feeders, so present your bait or lure close to the bottom structure, especially near submerged trees or rocks.
