shaw24 Posted July 30, 2008 Posted July 30, 2008 Whats good to use for striped and hybrid bass? It's in an old pit relatively small but crystal clear. Quote
Evan Pease Posted July 30, 2008 Posted July 30, 2008 I dont fish for them but my uncle does. He uses Cotton Cordell Redfins, white bucktail jgs, and live bait. Quote
Super User roadwarrior Posted July 30, 2008 Super User Posted July 30, 2008 Striper are my main target in the summer. I use live bait (gizzard shad, threadfin shad and skipjack). My best artificials have been topwater (Spooks) when they're busting, big jerkbaits (LC Pointer 128) the rest of the time. 8-) Quote
basspimple Posted July 31, 2008 Posted July 31, 2008 big jerk baits have worked real well in the past for me. caught a 9 lb. hybrid on a big husky jerk last fall. some of the hardest fighting fish ive ever hooked into! Quote
lknbassman Posted August 1, 2008 Posted August 1, 2008 Topwater plugs (spooks, Sammy's, pencil poppers, etc). Big in line spinners (Mepps, Blue Fox, Rooster Tail #3 or up) Big jerk baits (XRap, Pointers, etc) Gotta find em schooling or chasing bait. They roam at all times and never sit still. You have to collide with them to catch them. Live bait is always the best trolled but I don't fish that way so I don't catch as many as the guys who do it that way. Live bait is the most effective way to catch stripers though. Quote
Pencil Pusher Posted August 1, 2008 Posted August 1, 2008 Around here, jigging spoons and tail spinners (Little George or a local one called a Humdinger) are the lures of choice for Hybrids in deep water. Sassy Shad or similar for schooling fish on top. Quote
