Below OH Dam is a great place to target big 20+ lbers from the bank during fall with smaller baits. Think 4" and pearl or white ice flukes on a 3-way rig bounced on bottom...just to name one of my go-to rigs there.

I have super flukes that I thought would work perfect for stripers. They're 5" I think and the color is smoke blue. I've used them at the dam a few times and caught some nice bass but never any stripers. I also never did this when the water was high though, that may have been part of the problem. Just out of curiosity, why do those big stripers only hang around the dam during generation?
