Definately check out 'Wayneswords'.
Another piece of advice or two. Go into Moki Canyon (1st and 2nd small canyons on your left after you enter Moki).Fish where the rock walls have fallen into the water and left rock piles in the water. Try a 3" Pumpkinseed grub, Texas rigged with a 1/8 or 1/4 oz bullet in front, or maybe a 3" tube. Bounce it down the rock piles. If that's not working, then they're probably in a prespawn pattern somewhere near those rock piles, so keep searching likely prespawn type areas in the vicinity.
I also do really well in the main channel around many of the 'spires' sticking up close to the cliff walls on the south side for smallies, walleye and gills.........
Go up towards Hite and look near the backs of canyons for LMB. They seem to like medium to sparse vegitation or stickups near rocks in shallow water but with quick access to deeper water.
If you're looking for stripers, there are so many good places, it's hard to suggest a particular place. Wayneswords would be the best resource for hot locations.
BTW, I had a Viper Coral up until a few years ago and it was my favorite boat ever! Perfect for Powell. You can cruise the big main channel waves and chop going 50 mph or faster.
Good luck!
