New and have a question(s)

[SocalStriper]

Currently I'm fishing at a Southern California lake for stripers.

All I throw is artificials because I think bait is cheezy.

I've been doing alright lately with the topwater bite on 7.5" High Roller Rip Rollers in Red/white.

The biggest fish I'm catching are 6lbers, but I know there are A LOT of 8-12 and some 15-25lbers.

Basically my question is simple; How can I weed through these smaller fish?

Also please post some websites that link me directly to very shallow swimming plugs and topwater plugs.

I need to try something new.

btw: I am a shore fisherman : ( but I've been doing better than some of the boaters. Unfortunately where the Inlet is, it is illegal to fish due to a few deaths. (from shore) I need a boat don't I. lol

Rigs I use: 8' shimano Terramar w/ Daiwa Millionaire 300cvx (ripping plugs/ Trout Swimbaits) and 10' Shimano Clarus Salmon/Steelhead rod w/ 445 Penn spinning reel (For walk the dog baits) and for throwing in the Inlet/canal.
