Striper Cartel guide Chris M. reports big stripers are biting!

Big striped bass are being caught in the upper ends of the lake. Shallow flats are producing throughout most of the day. Big baits are key to get the bite, shad and suckers are our top go to baits. Over the next couple weeks fishing will be intense. Big fish and a lot of action, live bait using planner boards or free lines will be where it's at. We have our first two weeks of 80 degree weather headed our way this week. Striper Cartel - Beaver Lake, Arkansas www.stripercartel.com
