striper lure question?

[umahunter]

i have a spot i fish where on some occasion boils will pop off and and the stripers go nuts so im putting together a pole just for them i have caught them best throwing 4 inch shadalicious or fat head jrs into the boils but they only last about one fish and take to long to re rig before they move im trying to find a hard bait with the same action any ideas???

I have kept a Storm Wild eye swimbait bait tied on.  

You can cast them a long ways which is very important, striper spook off very easy.

You can very the retrieve for desired depths.   Color depends on the conditions and seasons.

Most cranks work as well. Soft baits like slugos, flukes are good also.

I don't know of any hard baits, but I can tell you that a 6" swim bait resembling a rainbow trout works great & its reusable for up to 10-20 times.

We catch a lot of Strippers and Hybrids on  (All or mostly white) Crankbaits.   We have tried others but always come back to Crankbaits.

I also use Storm Wild-Eye Swim Shad, 4" in shad color.

For a hard bait, I use a Husky Cisco Kid. This is really a musky lure, @ 8" long, and silver scale finish.Dives to 2 15-20'.     Good Luck.

During the spring striper run down the Delaware river we use a lot of soft plastic swimbaits. Mostly we just live line herring though.

Metal lipped swimmers. Wood is good.

I'm shocked that no one has mentioned the Bomber Long A.  Those things slay the Striper for me.  Don't do anything but reel and they will slam them.
