Default Stripers in the Sacramento Delta now

Hi All,

With the cooling temps here in Nor Cal, the stripers seemed to be moving
into the Delta for the winter. We are getting more good reports now.

You need a 14 to 18 foot power boat, #7 to #9 weight outfit with fast
sinking line and Clouser minnows. The tidal movement does effect the fishing
and having a fish locator/bottom sounder is a good too. You can use it for
finding baitfish, structure and even stripers.

Some of our guys caught stripers to 12#, a salmon and some black bass on
Tuesday in the Delta.

Mildred Island, big lake, is a good place to start fishing because it is
consistent. It is popular from October through March. Then we go after them
in the rivers for the spawning run.
