Striper fishing with lures what works well?

[Wizzlebiz]

I just began fishing this year. I am about 7 minutes away from the delta. I understand that frozen bait cut bait and live bait are what is reccomended. However I feel if I can practice some retrieves using lures that I would normally use for largemouth bass it would up my game. 

 

What lures are good for both largemouth and stripers?

Most of my striper fishing has been on Colorado river lakes during the summer, a time whete the stripers will school boil under pods of threadfin shad.  In those situations, topwater baits, Rapala type minnow baits and lipless crankbaits will catch them.

 

A cool thing about the lipless baits is you can crank them as fast as possible, stripers are pelagic and are used to running down fleeing prey.  Also, since lipless baits sink, you can let the lure drop below those stripers busting the surface and see if there are any larger ones roaming around, eating the dying shad as they fall.

Cotton Cordell Redfin, any big walking and/or popping bait, big buck tails, and big flukes. Live and cut bait are excellent

@Wizzlebiz, 3/4oz Rattletraps, either chrome w/blue or black back seem to work best for both species, especially if the strippers are running in the Delta. For top water, consider throwing a Super Spook, Pencil Popper, or Lunker Punker. In the fall when water temps start to drop, trolling a jointed 6-8” rebel spoonbill or the Rattletraps would be productive. Good luck out there
