Shoeless is right about the lure "action", it needs to look something like the real thing. I always try to watch the lures move through the water as it gets close enough to see. A little twitch usualy helps the presentation, if for no other reason to make it flash as it moves. Watch how the others around you do it (especially if they're catching) and use what they are and try to fish it in the same way. If the current is real strong use something a little heavier so it gets down some in the water and slow down your retrieval speed so it doesn't look spastic. And like my original post here, there are no guarantees at any given spot at any given time, so if you can move around some. At the Lesner I've caught fish all over the place, inside & out. I was one of the two guys that came off the outside bar this a/m with the waders, net,stringer, and vest with the 10lbs. of got-to-have-at-all-times lures in it. Change your lure if it's not working and when you use up the tackle box in one area move to another that looks good. The fall is better for Stripers at the Lesner but there are a lot of other fish there this time of year that will bite the same type of lures, so be patient and keep pluging. If you liked the fight with the little striper just wait until you hook onto one of those 5lb. Blues!!
