I would be fishing from the bank. I've only fished there a few times. Most of my info comes from friends who fish there a bunch. A way to hit stripers during the week for me (boat places are 2-3 hours drive). Yes, in some areas jigs are used and I would certainly have a selection with me. That was my first thought too: throw a jig. Most of the guys like the topwater stuff for the evening bite. Lots of rocks and some shallow water is probably why they throw less subsurface stuff. Probably some deeper pools, but most is likely less than 10 feet deep. I have several rods for throwing jigs so I figure it would be worth looking into to something different for targeting the topwater stuff. Hard to pass up the chance for the topwater blast Not that I have a problem with jigs
