Sac/American Stripers 4-25/4-26

I'm planning on hitting the mouth of the AR for stripers this weekend 4-25/4-26. Probably Sat morning or Sunday let me know if anyones intrested.

I thought it's still early?  If I get the car fixed in time I can chase down some with ya. 

Are you going to drift minnows or anchor? Saturday sounds interesting. Last weekend at Wards the fishing was way slow. How is the water temp?I was planning a smallie hunt but want to do the sac for stripers too. Where were you thinking of launching and what time? Thanks, Craig

I thought it's still early?  

Nope I was down there last week and I wouldn't say the action was red hot but there was action.Heres this weeks report from Western Outdoor News

SACRAMENTO RIVER, Sacramento--Striper fishing took off in a big way last week as both flows and the weather settled down. They were being caught from Rio Vista to Verona on just about every method from soaking bait to trolling Bombers and throwing swimbaits. Most fish have been schoolies from barely legal (18 inches) to about 6 pounds plus the occasional fish in the 20-pound class. Bryte Beach, Miller Park, just above the mouth of the Feather, and Crawdads have been some of the better spots. Sturgeon are still being caught, but most anglers have switched to striped bass.

AMERICAN RIVER--There seems to be lots of striper action on the Sacramento River, even at the mouth of the American, but trollers continued to struggle in the lower end of the river, and only the occasional striper was being caught farther upstream, mostly by anglers throwing soft swimbaits and soaking jumbo minnows.
