Contemplating a trip with my wife to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary. I know it would be speculation, but any thoughts on if the stripers would be boiling up at GHB then? I know it was gangbusters in 2017 when the water came up a bunch...
 
My guess is that you will find boiling stripers in GHB in September. In the southern lake stripers are slurping up a huge chunk of the shad population in fairly clear water. So shad numbers will be less in the fall.

In the north, (GHB), water clarity makes it tough for stripers to see tiny shad so more will escape and adult shad numbers will be greater. If shad are present stripers will boil. Have a good trip for Anniversary number 25!
 
Thanks Wayne! I was watching the episode you made with KSL outdoors in 2017 in September, something even remotely like that would be awesome! Seems after the water comes up, the boils go strong into the fall?
