Thanks for the live report. Get em!

After 20 fish, no keepers. Switched to Rattletrao.

Even if they are small it sure sounds fun!

Nice live report!

Ended with 22 stripers from 15” - 17.5”. 19 on A-rig, 3 on Rattle-trap. All more or less in the same area. I moved on back towards the launch a bit, marked several fish but could only get a few bites. Done at 1pm.

Thanks for the report Joe. I am sure you had fun catching them.

Sounds like a fun day out there!  Stripers are a good time when they are thick like that. I need to hit up Benicia soon!

Was out there with Joe in Benicia as well, we chatted on the water briefly before the bite happened.  I picked up two keepers 22" and 19".... but just kept the 22" as it was a really nice fish. 

I didn't have the action Joe did, but just stayed around the State Park.  I only fished for just over two hours.

Used a white swimbait with a bigger hook than usual to discourage the smaller fish.

Sad to say I saw a salmon jump and the sea lion get into one as well out in the channel.

Having never fished that area before what is the launching situation like? I may give it a try some time.

Great day OTW 🤙.  Thanks for the report!
