[quote shreker][fishin] please bare with me when I say HOW IN THE WORLD DO I CATCH A STRIPER I'm sorry but I have tried and tried and still nothing....[/quote]
I had that same problem when I first started fishing Mead hard 3 years ago. my first outing was fair, I was jigging 2oz crippled herring's from shore out at Boulder harbor, I ended up with 4, 17" stripers in a couple hours.... then... I went over a year before catching another one, I caught lots of carp, and catfish. but not another striper till about a year later after joining this site and absorbing all the knowledge. even though that was my pb striper @5lbs, I only caught 1 other striper that year. then after doing some more research on here, this year has been a banner year for me on stripers, I have caught over 15 stripers this year from shore, I know it may not seem like a lot but for me it is. and its all from reading threads and applying that knowledge on my outings.
