300Win: slurps are happening all over right now. Watch the area right around the Bullfrog ramp when you launch the boat. Watch for surface activity -- any disturbance in the surface of the water. Schools of stripers are cruising sub-surface and feeding on small shad, which sit right at the surface.
make sure your boys have rods rigged up and ready with something they can cast well: kastmaster, zara spook or other "popper", heavy jigs, stick baits, etc.
When you see these schools, cruise up along side and have the kids starting casting in front of the school. They move fast, and you've got to cast in front of them. Then just crank fast and hang on!
I'll see if I can upload a video showing a slurp so you can see what to look for. They can be found all day long, as long as the wind isn't blowing.
