Delta Fishing Report

Striper fishing on the Delta has been up
& down the last few days. Some days they are on a good bite, other days they just don’t seem to bite much. Also, we have had a windy week which has made it very challenging to target the fish, wind casting skills were at a premium but winds seem to be tapering down. 

Water temperatures are 60 degrees in various parts of the Delta & Stripers will likely spawn in the next week or so. Last few times out I have I been averaging 10-20fish, most fish we have been finding are smaller “schoolies” but 3-5lb fish are mixed in & the occasional larger fish can be found as well!

 For sub-surface Stripers I am using 1/0-3/0 “Steve Adachi” style rattle Clouser flies in various color combinations. Get out fishing or book your Spring Delta adventure soon before it’s all over!
