It's been 4 long years since I have been able to pursue my passion of stripe fishing. My favorite is fishing the tailraces with my hand tied bucktail jigs. Harris damn barely generates in the summer and most of the stuff on Coosa river is only good for catch and release and is a bit of a drive.

I love fishing below the damns because it really adds to the fight!! Topwater is my favorite by far but I am limited in the hot weather. My question is can anyone help me out with a bit of knowledge for fishing the tailrace below Martin damn. I know the water being released in July is cold enough to make a chrome lure fog over when you take it out of the water. The damn is generating a decent amount of water but I don't know if any fish are pulling up to the damn.

Any help getting my line stretched again would be greatly appreciated.
