[cool][#0000FF]Haven't heard of anybody trying them on Powell, but past experience has proven that the stripers will hit just about anything you are throwing for largies and smallies. That includes all kinds of cranks and spinnerbaits...especially when they are cruising the shoreline.
There are a few guys that fish the big stripers below dams on the rivers back east that use a chatter blade ahead of a big white grub and catch some big fish. I'm sure they would work under the right conditions on Powell too. As the fish get bigger and feed more on the larger gizzard shad something with more profile and action could get some attention.
Hard to beat feeding those Powell fish some anchovies. They love them. Don't even have to put them on pizza.
When the stripers are boiling in the fall it is harder to find something they WON'T hit than something they will. If you find them they will bite...usually.
