Bait fishing, trolling deep-diving lures and umbrella rigs work well at Raystown Lake.
If you are aimed at largemouth or smallmouth bass go fishing in early morning or evening with surface-style bait.
Focus on the drop-offs, creek edges and ledges in the lake.
Using crankbaits, slashbaits, weightless Senkos, spinnerbaits and swimbaits can be more effective in deep water.
The best period to catch striped bass at Raystown Lake is from March through December. Alewife, shad and shiner are good live baits.
