Stripers, I don't think you find them in warm Georgia water...kinda' like not knowing what a snowmobile looks like!

Heck, I live on the Ches Bay and call em stripers. Then again I grew up fishing the S. Jersey coast.

I lived on a fresh water lake in Middle Georgia( Lake Sinclair) several years ago and they had a program actually stocking stripers for a few years. They finally realized that they would have to keep continuously stocking the lake because there was not enough swift running water in the impounded lake for the stripers to reproduce, so they stopped the program from lack of money. There were a few caught in the deep water channels and at the tail race of the dam that were around 50lbs. Then they started stocking a cross called a hybrid that did well in the local impoundments. The stripers did reproduced close to the coast of South Carolina in the Santee-Cooper lake though. Fresh water stripers put up a much hardier fight than the saltwater ones.

I grew up in SC and they've always been rockfish to me.
