Nope but it won't stop me from continuing on the hunt!
By the way the bite crashed since the weekend, baby LMB's and shad have moved off the shoreline and the activity level has dropped dramatically, possibly water temp, barometer, moon phase or hell I got no freak'n idea! Weird how quickly it changed cause I've tried all the areas that I'd been fishing days prior and the same conditions seem to exist, although I'm still seeing bait dimpling in deeper water, think the stripers are trying to digest all the food they've eaten recently, hee hee.

theres lmb frys everywhere around the launch ramp,,stripey likes them, just like the threadfins there gorging on right now,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,T/O,,,,,,,,,
Cleghorn was thick with them on the shoreline and the stripers were crashing on them early and late, all belly's full with very few shad, now little guys are gone off the shoreline over there and other areas, guess they still like the marina area. Poor LMB's got no chance but in the Spring the LMB's were sucking up striper fry over by the launchramp like crazy, revenge is sweet!
Backside of the lake has way more shad, you've probably found them in open water in other parts also, I just haven't been out on the lake for a while need to get back in the yak and get off the shoreline, it's getting crowded I like elbow room.
They are actually Log Perch and we have also shocked them up at Perris when we do fish surveys.
Thanks Bassgrabber. I just found a website that lists the bigscale logperch as an inhabitant of the Mojave River and Silverwood. The coloration and markings match the fish my friend found inside his striper.
Can you use them for live bait?
I'm pretty sure they cannot be used because of the following DFG baitfish regulations for inland waters:
4.10. BAIT FISH USE IN THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT.
Except as provided below, live or dead fin fish shall not be used or possessed for use as bait in the Southern District:
(a) Dead threadfin shad and live or dead longjaw mudsucker may be used in all Southern District waters.
(b) Live threadfin shad may be used only at the location where taken.
(c) Golden shiner and red shiner may be used in San Diego County.
BTW, my after finding the perch in the stomach of his striper, my friend bought an LC SK Jerk crankbait in the yellow perch pattern from BPS and has been doing really well on the Silverwood shore stripers with it.
