I am getting ready to take out the sissy sticks for some Thanksgiving stripers in the Delta but we also have stripers in the surf. We'll also be throwing swimbaits, bucktail jigs and some spoons.

2005 was a banner year for surf stripers - amazing year. This year was a lot slower for me, but still a lot of fun. My big fish last year was about 42" and about 30 lbs. My big fish this year was just over 12 lbs.

BUT, I am still glad that you East Coast guys decided to share the wealth years ago and can't believe that the fish actully made the cross country trip on a train....did they travel first class?

Thanks again,
