    Report: We launched out of B&W 7 a.m., fished a lot of the south bank on the mokelumne with no bites. I proceeded to take us into sycamore.At about 10 a.m. the fog lifted and we got feeling back in our finger tips. Saw some fly fisherman 3/4's of the way back into the slough. They were throwing a sub-surface fluke-like fly, that gave my partner the idea to throw a rip bait, 3rd cast on the pause he strokes a 3#. Unfortunately it was our only fish of the day. I ran us all the to the back of Sycamore and the water was real muddy and still cold. We fished until 3:30. Baits I used; 7" watermelon red weightless senko, 7" shad mission fish, 41/2" huddleston shad ( purple FR=12), staysee pointer chatruese shad, Lucky craft lipless crawdad pattern, chrome and blue rattle trap, Dandy baits "JAB" jig in the BUD color with a paca craw trailer. Either my slow presentation was'nt slow enough, or I'm just plain aint' on 'em. Time to hire a giude.

    Tips: Try ripping, they were suspended off the weed bed during first part of incoming. Instead of slow, try SUPER slow. Good luck

    Report: diehard, sorry that im late on the response, but franks tract is south east of the sacramento river. just use google maps and you cant really miss it (its a huge body of water that resembles a lake) Franks Tract is a shallow all around (ranging from 2-7 ft) so your friend is right about the stripers hanging around the flats. Surrounding the tract are river channels, so striper follow the bait fish into this area, and "trap" them. we caught most of our stripers on the east side of the tract (roaming in and out of the channel) but i know many other boats were on the south and north sides of the tract, catching their fair share. I dont know what triggers the frenzy, but its definitely related to all the bait fish that flood this area. when its around 4pm, the sun dips below mt diablo, so i'm sure the sunlight is one major contributing factor. Just keep any white jerk bait tied on, make it look like an injured bait fish. Have fun...and KEEP WARM!!!

    Report: I've been fishing the delta for last few weeeks now and I have a tough time catching stripers over 6 lbs. I've been throwing rattle traps,swimbaits,rip baits and top water lures and catching lots of stripers but no size to speak of. They're all about 12 to 28 inches. I've been fishing the shallows or flats. Am I fishing the wrong depth? Can anyone tell me where and how to catch some stripers using artificial. I thought about trolling for them but thats just too boring to me.

    Report: Fished Friday and Sunday. Friday was able to get a few nice Jig fish. Threw a green pumpkin 1/2 oz with green pumpkin trailers. Biggest was 8lb 6 oz out of middle river area. Caught a few spinnerbait and rat-l-trap fish as well. Sunday couldnt get a jig bite goin but they were crushing rat-l-trap. Crushed spinnerbait as well but could only manage 3 keeper size fish in 6 hours of throwin. Lost 3 in a row on rat-l-trap.I think I must have my drag too tight when Im throwin braided line, I think I rip the bait out of jumping fish.

    Tips: Find rocky reeds with a little secondary structure off shore. Bass were hiding between the reeds and the outer Hydrilla at the high tide. Look for reeds with Deep water nearby.

    Tips: take what you will from reports, if you don't like them go on to the next, or shut up and fish, but don't call someone elses report b.s. cause you went out and had a bad day, sack up and deal with it.
