I am not exactly sure what you mean by fishing "on top of C.J. Strike". (Always better to be fishing on top of any body of water compared to on the bottom!!) I have heard of lots of stories about wind storms on C.J., but never any undercurrents. C.J. is like lots of bodies of water in Idaho; when the wind gets howling, stay off. And, there is frequently wind in the Snake River canyons. There are also plenty of days when it is mirror calm. Just watch the weather reports, and wind predictions for Mt. Home and other nearby towns. You certainly don't have to go far from the Air Force ramp to get into bass, crappie, perch, trout, and bluegills. You mentioned sturgeon fishing. Are you talking about sturgeon in the reservoir, or below the spillway--they can be found in both locations. The sturgeon fishing in the res. is in the upper region of the res. Hope this helps. Mike
