As we push into mid-March, early mornings and late afternoons will generally be the most productive times for stripers. Anglers find success with anchovies and golden shiners throughout the Boulder Basin and into the Overton Arm. Jerkbaits and crankbaits in shad patterns will also bring success. Black bass moving into pre-spawn activity can be fooled with finesse baits.
