Considered by many to be the ultimate
Freshwater trophy.  Stripers can grow
to  over Fifty pounds and  60 + inches.
Specialized  gear  and  techniques  are
used  to  catch  Stripers which average
26  to  40  inches,  and  weigh  15 to 30
pounds.

The Striper is a Saltwater Fish introduced into
the clear waters of Lake Cumberland. It
grows fast dining on gizzard shad and alewives
in the deep clear waters.

These fish will strip line and pull drags like no
other fish in Freshwater. Stripers up to 60
pounds have been caught in Freshwater.

Hire a guide for the same reason you would hire  a  lawyer or an electrician - for his knowledge, experience, and resources. Even expert  anglers  hire guides  when  exploring  new  areas.

In  addition  to providing  the  equipment needed to catch fish, a  professional  guide will  also provide helpful insights  on fishing techniques  and  strategies, as  well as on game fish habits and locations.

If you are considering "gearing up" to pursue a new species, a guide's  advice  on the  selection  of appropriate  tackle  can be invaluable.

One  day  with  a good  guide  can save you  countless  hours of experimentation, and  put  you  on  the  road to  fishing  success.  It's a good investment.
