Well I have been fishing the river every night trying to get some hybrid stipers. I finally was able to get into a few. I hooked 4 and landed 2. These things fight so hard. I was using a Zara Spook and they totally demolish the bait. Its a fun way to fish for them! I lost a really big one right at shore that was pushing 10lbs. I went to drag it on to shore and the hooks popped out. Oh well, i let them go any ways.
