Striper FOOD

[Bug_Spin_Dokta]

Here's some stuff i been working on and NO. They are not for SALE. Just wanted to share some of my paintjobs. I've always been a Striper plugging junkie. Got tired of paying premium price ($19.00 a plug) for Lucky Craft's so decided to go with some Clones.

Pogue, lemme know if you wanna paint a couple ;-)

I agree with halojm. You are talented with the AB. Stripers? Some of those would probably do good out here on some Wipers. And even on some Tiger Muskies.

halojm, bduck.

Thank You.

bduck- how big to the Wipers get?

The wiper is a hybrid cross between a female striped bass and a male white bass. Its appearance reflects
both parents. It has six to eight dark, horizontal broken stripes over a silver-white background, with a
dark charcoal to black back. It has two dorsal fins, the anterior with eight to ten sharp spines. It is slightly
heavier bodied than the striped bass and grows up to 12 pounds in weight and 24 inches in length.

The record is 9lb 12oz for the state of Utah comes out of Willard Bay which is within 5 miles of my home. I live this close to this fishery but have not been Wiper fishing yet. I have caught plenty of Stripers from the Sacramento River in Sacto and in other states as well. My tackle mostly consists of Kokanee & Trout specials. Been picking up tips on lures to catch them on from several who fish for them.

Yes your right As I'm solely a Hybrid fisherman from Texas, now I'm stationed up here at Ft Lewis, WA my favorite fish to fish for in the world is the Hybrid Stripper "Wiper" hands down. My biggest Hybrid was 11 pds and some change and is mounted on my wall. I consider any wiper over 8 pds to truly be a trophy in my book, but that’s my opionion, just for the fight it is unbelievable. I troll for them and my bait of choice is bucktails and some of the crankbaits that mimic the natural food in the particular lake I’m fishing. I ganrantee you when you hook into a hybrid you will know it and will be hooked for life! You will think you have a 25-30 stripper on the line. I wish there was a lake up here in Washington that had them in it.

i am fully aware of what a Wiper is. I'm sure you can use thesame technique. plugging/casting. i'd love to catch one on Topwater though.

thanks for the response bduck.
