When I was a kid I fished lake Lanier for stripped bass. I'd really like to start fishing for them again. When do the strippers make their run up the local rivers and what's the best real bait/artificial bait to use. Also do they like top water when the run the local rivers.

Only stripper I seen come out of New River was caught by my wife more than 10 years ago... I wouldn't have believed it if I didn't see it.

BEst bets on striper in the rivers are Cape Fear, Neuse and Roanoke. Cape Fear river you can catch but must release. The other rivers youi can keep 2. Check the fishing regs to see size and creel limits. Stripers stay around New Bern all year and can be caught with a variety of lures.
