Boiling stripers are taking anchovies and topwater lures throughout Boulder Basin and north toward the Overton Arm. For bait fishermen, stripers weighing from 1 to 3 pounds are taking cut anchovies. When fishing a boil, stay away from the edge and cast to the opposite side to avoid spooking the fish. Jointed swimbaits, pencil poppers and shad imitations are working for stripers. Silver and yellow crankbaits and jigs are enticing black bass. Catfish also are hitting anchovies fished off the bottom overnight.
