mattyk Posted May 27, 2009 Report Share Posted May 27, 2009 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.

Greencoachdog Posted May 27, 2009 Report Share Posted May 27, 2009 Great report and pics Matt!!! ... but I believe those 2 in the pics are actually White Bass, the Wipers lines are a lot more broken up and darker than on those fish.... but I could be wrong. There are 2 different crosses for the Wiper, one uses White Bass milt and Striped Bass eggs (that's the Wiper we have here) and the other uses Striped Bass milt and White Bass eggs which is also known as the Sunshine Bass and may be what those fish are.

Bob Posted May 27, 2009 Report Share Posted May 27, 2009 In that first pic, you remind me of Smilin' Bob from the commercials. Have you been taking those male enhancement pills? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
