Are you trolling with shad ? Or casting artificial? I have a guide scheduled for Tuesday. Probably fishing up towards Hardy.

Fishing from a pier. Green light to draw the alewives in. Down lake in Bull Run area.

I have heard of that area but never fished it. Read previous reports about guys catching striper in Bull Run. I have always fished from B&B and up river. Good luck.

No bites Saturday night. Temp had dropped into the 30s. Sunday night I caught 3 from 25 to 30 inches.

Good deal for you. That is perfect eating size. I'm driving over right now. I hope we do as good as you tomorrow. Is the lake very busy ?

Boat ramp at Penhook has had maybe 12 uses today. They all head out of Little Bull Run to the main channel. No idea where after that. I'm set up with a 4 rod holder over a submercible green led light. The alewives? are small at 2.5 to 3 inches. Occasionally catch a 5 incher. Those are much better to use. Last night a few striper moved thru and I caught 3 that were 25 to 30 inches.
