Went out last week and landed these two ten pounders, i know they get a lot bigger in other lakes but these are pretty good stripers for tims ford lake, TN, actually one is a hybrid

i caught them on live bait i used a leader with a gold spinner and about a 3 to four inch minnow while trolling

joel, I've heard these aren't very good eating but are a heck of a fight. What's your take on eating them.

stripers are great eating but a key thing to do with them is to cut out all the red meat and you got yourself a good meal with fried hushpuppies and coleslaw

sometimes if it is a big striper ill even slice the filets in two making them a little bit thinner
