The Caney is 28 miles long and is quite a bit different from the Stones tailwater in terms of gradient, depth, and the character of the pools close to the dam.

That said, even on the Caney, the stripers rarely run all the way to the dam unless there has been continuous generation for a while, and when the continuous generation ceases, they drop back and don't stick around in the upper few miles of river.

If you're saying you regularly catch large stripers on the Caney close to the dam, on low water, with the generators off for 12 plus hours, I'm sorry but I'd have to see it to believe it.
