Butch with Hugh Arkansas Striped BassStriped Bass Fishing is the Fastest Growing Sport with American Anglers. Having helped the founding Fathers of this country to survive, being commercially caught and sold for centuries, the striped bass is increasingly being taken notice of in inland lakes and rivers.

Striped bass have been stocked  since the 1950s in lakes and rivers across the country and as the stocking has spread across the country anglers are discovering the rod and tackle busting qualities with witch the striped bass are endearing themselves with to an ever increasing angler population.


Artificial Bait

Artificial Lures can make for an exciting day on the water. Top-water lures like the Cotton Cordell Redfin, Pencil Popper or Zara Spook, sub-surface lures like Rebel jerk-baits, and deeper water techniques with jigs and spoons have been popular with striper anglers around the country.

Getting a lot of attention is fly-fishing for stripers. Ten weight rods with intermediate or sink tip lines is mainly used.

Live Bait

When choosing the type of live bait, determine the primary forage base for the waters you are fishing. In some parts of the country it might be alewives, in others it might be shad.In the winter it may be Large shiners and at times it may be gold fish or small bream.

When fishing live bait there are several different methods.
Three effective techniques are down-lining, free-lining and planer boarding.

Down-lining is a vertical technique designed for slow manipulation in condensed schools of fish.

Free-lining is considerably less controlled in maintaining specific depth but can be highly effective if fish are relating to multiple depth zones.

When fish are scattered, trolling live baits behind planer boards affords greater coverage more efficiently.
