Went out first light Saturday with my brother out of Vierras.

Ran north early and the only thing we had to show for it was a couple 6" fish. Wind was pushing pretty hard out there as well.

Decided to run south east and fished hard covering 4-5 spots for nothing.

The tide had just switched to incoming and we decided to fish one more spot that we like on an incoming. We found a decent concentration of fish with one up to 10lbs. We hooked a fish on 7 out of 9 passes.

Water temps were in the 67 range and these fish were HOT!!!

They were holding in 4-10 feet of water of the end of a tule island with some pockets and the tide pushing into it.

Didn't seem like there were too many fish hanging around and when we did find them they were limited to one area. Got to cover your water to get rewarded.

Hope they start to thicken up here soon.

Went out last night a little closer to home.

Found a couple small LMB that ate on top and that was it, not one Striper.

Even had my brother in law chucking minnows. East Delta was fairly void of life last night.

Temps were up to 71 and clarity and tide were good.

Hopefully someone is on them out there.

Way to persevere. I haven't been on the delta much of lately, but will try to do some exploring next week. Thanks for the report.
