Has anyone been to Lake Powell lately? we were there a week ago for a family trip, Fishing for Stripers was bad, the Stripers were boiling everywhere, We kept trying to catch one of these boils but they never lasted long enough, one morning when we where fishing over at Mokie Canyon, there was 2 boils that kept popping up about every minute or so, in the channel, we moved out to the channel and tried to catch them, with a little luck we headed the boat at one of them and started to cast into the boil, no luck!, We tried again and again along with another red and white boat chasing the other boil, then a boil popped up not 20ft. from the boat still no luck, we kept changing lures but still no luck, the other boat had 4 people casting and they didn't catch any either, finaly the boils started heading down the channel with the red and white boat in hot persuit, we watched them for awhile but never seen them catch any, we fished a couple of different spots but still no luck, after about 45 minutes here come the other boat still chasing, we gave up and headed back to camp, the whole week was not a total lose the kids caught plenty of catfish and carp from the shore at camp.
