California delta.

[dk4885]

Me and my buddy Ryan hit up delta today the conditions have changed since last trip. Water murky. Water temp dropped 14 deg. Only got 19 on troll and 9 jigging spoons.

We was on old river behind Clifton court forbay and if you know the aqueduct system you would know that's the start of the aqueduct. Docked boat on old river and walked over to the very first gate of aqueduct system. Oh how sexy she looked.

If this was Facebook you should of tagged fishkngwithdave on that American shad bait he painted!


Great work fellas..


Nice DD

[cutbait]

I call bullspit on the Clifton photo. That looks like Quail!

[Fishin4runner]

Could be Quail except there aren't many bait birds there. D/K if you would have caught that first striper at striperbowl you'd have kicked C/b's butt on smallest fish. That last fish though has me wanting to head North...Looks like fun keep it up..........

Aren't those unbroken stripes a thing of beauty?

[trail blazer]

I can only DREAM of a rattle bait just like that,,that didn't rattle but was still properly weighted to run deep,call it a,,SILENT WIGGLER,,,,It would be deadly on WISEOLD duct stripers,,,,!

Wonder who we could ask abought making a few for experimental purposes,,wink wink,,,,,,,,,


And when it became a worldfamous striperkillin lure all over the world, we would be the only ones who knew that the idea started right here in this thread,,,,,,NOT by the MORON in the A/V that will be claiming to be the brainchild!

Man, I totally missed this thread until AA told me about it today.

The lab is open; let's build the SBD. I have some ideas on how to silence the rattles. CB, cut me up some split shots and we'll get some prototypes built.

It will be bad a s s and we'll take it to the AV and kill them DDs

[FishingwithDave]

And that's a nice DD pig you splayed DK!

[striperchaser559]

Nice! That's my new favorite spot. Next time I go I might try drifting bluegill. Can't wait till March
