Lake Murray

[gmoore]

Can anyone give me some info on the fishing at Lake Murray? I will be in Prosperity later this week and will have access to 20 ft. cc while i'm there. Would like to catch a few stripers. Any "hot spots", techinques, baits, lures etc. would be appreciated.
I will be coming from the upper chesapeake bay in DE/MD area.
Would it be better to post this on the freshwater board?

Thanks, Gary

I live in Columbia sc. I fish Lake Murray as my primary lake . I haven't been much latley because I just got back from fishing at the CBBT. I am going in the morning. The latest report I've seen is that the Stripers are schooling some from Dreher ISland to Bomb Island. I don't use live bait but the ones that do use live herring or large shinners. I use the large bucktails or Bas Assassin on heavy jig . I haven't tried this yet but I think sting silvers will work also they work well at CBBT. If you find them schooling on top lucky craft jerk baits do very well. When are you coming down?

Wateree, thanks for the reply. We went out this afternoon for a few hrs. this afternoon around Big Birds shop, marked some fish but no takers.

Were going to take your advice sat. and fush where you said. Be in a white 20ft. SeaHunt CC with black T-top. {no vhf yet}

If you see us come over.

Thanks again, Gary
