if you are renting a boat, for stripers, try n get a fishfinder. if u go outa callville bay, you can see stripers around the dock. the wash is supposidly good. i fished for stripers but got skunked, cruise the shorelines, for lmb on beds. there are huge ones in the marina area, but technically you are not supposed to fish for em in the marina ...
if u get skunked, throw out some corn/worms for some awesome carp action.

thanks for the advice, umoa,

i have a portable fish finder. the lake is so big, i have no idea where to start! i hope i don't get skunked, but i'll take your advice a try for the carp!
