Thanks for the reply Buddy. I Googled the William O Huske Lock & Dam water level and saw that the water level at 7:00 pm April 21 was at 37 feet. I believe the water level of 34-35 feet is better. I'll wait for your text message when the water level drops to the fishable level. Thanks, Joe.
10-4... buddy took his little girls out there today also... they fished on the rock for cats and crappie... He said they was a ton of people out there today
yea we sure do... and yea your right... this is a great spot to catch Stripper.. I made a video of me a friend catching a few about a couple years back... you can check it out on my page. Thanks for watching
Hi Buddy! Have you fished American shads at Lock & Dam 3 this year? Seems this year's shad run has been delayed because of cold weather. When do you think the shad run will begin this year? Could you give me a heads up? Appreciate it. Joe.
yes sir I fished for shad twice this year... and they are biting hard. I fished about week and a half ago and caught around 60 shad.. everyone was catching them that day.. had some buddies fish last Saturday and they caught a nice amount also. I just haven't had time to put together a video this year tho
Great job, dude. You're a real pro. Actually I went there too in Good Friday in the morning from 8:00 am to 12:00. I only caught 2 shads. I did not see you? Were you there in the afternoon?
yea... i went down around 1;30 or so after I work. Going to try to get back down there this week if I get off work a little early one day.. Thanks for watching..
Hi TeamReelScrem: According to your knowledge and experience, when is the peak time to fish for stripers at dam and lock #3? I am a green hand, and I can use some good information. Thanks.
to be honest I'm a little new at fishing for striper myself... the few times I have had luck on the stripers at lock #3 was around this time of the year.... Just has the shad start bite dies down the stripers show up.... so I would say for the next 4-5 weeks should be a good time to try... I have my best luck fishing a Raddle Trap... making long cast all the way into the fast moving water right next to the Dam
Be moving in this area sometime near the end of the year coming from Richmond va where we fish the James river for hickory and American Shad! I googled this spot on Google maps but couldn’t find it! Was the place torn down as of recent?
Hi buddy, I enjoy watching your fishing video. I due time, would you please post another video about 2017 striper bass run at Cape Fear River lock and dam #3?
I will try my best boss.. I missed the Stripers last year... But yea I was thinking the same thing the other day... they should show up in the next week or so... hopefully I can get off work a few days early to make another Epic Video
Drove by yesterday and didn't even stop because I figured it would be so crowded. It doesn't look bad at all.
yea it wasn't bad down there yesterday at all... going to back in the morning and try for some cats..
TeamReelScream Best of luck to ya. I'll stop by Sunday evening
10-4.... holla at me.. I'll be on the rocks about all day
During the week I can't make it there until after 5:00. That corner is hot just like wall. Sabiki rig catches them on a bad day. Like the videos
yea that corner is the hot spot... Thanks for watching
