If you're targeting Stripers...DEAD.

If you're targeting Strippers...well now that's a different story!

Really though, fishing has been almost non-existent for Striper.

Just spent a week at Havasu, only fished the channel by London Bridge while relaxing and sipping some cold ones, we caught several cats on cheetos, I tried the " cheeto fly" ( Foam earplug) with a slit shot and landed a couple cats. Most fish were around 3-4 lbs, all released, did catch one carp on a cheeto but all the other fish were cats. 4lb test, size 6 octopus hooks, Good Times!

Were they regular flavor or the red hot? I might have to try tacos or steak to get them stripers to bite....

Regular Crunchy cheetos, the longer the better!Like a cheeto worm! Also had 2 cats on chocalate goldfish , try anything that stays on the hook and floats. Again this was only in the channel by the Bridge.....
