Both species act / react to bright light and sunlight in similar manner....they avoid it when possible.
They both LOVE to hunt at night.
As for cross-species tackle and tactics, my personal favorite is using small freshwater lures for stripers, specifically when the bait is small. That means having a selection of 3" storm shads, 4" slug-gos and 3 & 4" Mr. Twister grubs. The Slug-gos and grubs are rigged on 1/4 oz jigs.
Sure, it looks like I don't know what I'm doing, but after extensive research (many, MANY outings) I found that "matching the hatch" with stripers can sometimes mean drastic methods that you might not think would work.
I can recall some years back catching a 37" bass on a 6" slug-go on a 1/2 oz. jig, and at the time I thought that was radical....but I found I was really just starting to learn that you never stop learning, and just keep on catching fish!
