Fished the Lake side of the dam (11pm-4am). Hit the flat straight out from the ramp, the rip rap beside the dam, and a couple of other close spots. Picked up only one or two at each stop and all were small. Fished pumpkin Lizard carolina rigged and Big Critter Craw (red) texas style rig for most part.
The fish were jumping like crazy above the turbines and along the gates. Could not get one single bite and couldn't tell what they were. Threw everything I had to offer without any success. I tried rattle traps, 200 splatter back, chug-a-ug, broken-back zura and a fluke not to mention what my buddy was throwing. The fish wouldn't hit anything and were so active that I was surprized I didn't accidentaly snag one. The fish never stopped jumping. I did manage to catch three bass by ignoring the top water activity and throwing the critter where the bank meets up with the dam.
Does anyone have any idea of what type of fish those could have been and what else I should have tried.
