Very inspiring Ken,


What are the best months?

What is the practical range of the Stripers on our coast?


I did hear that a youngster from Lawson's Landing has been catching them on lures around Dillon Beach wading the surf.


Maybe you need to do some on the water Surf Striper seminars over there?

Or maybe you could host an outing over there?

Awesome job, Ken.
Came across a dead striper on the beach in front of San Diego's Glider Port last Tuesday.
Schoolie size with most of the head missing. An occasional catch in this area;
we're anxiously awaiting the return of surf perch. Catching way more corbina
and spotfin than perch. Very strange!
Best to all,

Thanks John......Fun for sure but it can get quite demanding with the environmental conditions. I'm still stoked by it though (even after almost 50 years of surf adventures).

Thanks Bill.......Your basic Delta outfits are perfect for this game. The heart of the population appears to still be Marin to Monterey, but they absolutely range from Oregon to San Diego. I've been retired from the "on-the-water" clinics and guiding for a while now.

Thanks Larry.......The perch game up here has also been sketchy at best. I hope it gets back to being a prime game. Beans and fins are sure a nice game to have in your neck-o-the-woods.

Thanks CM.........The Surf Zone is certainly not for everyone. In fact, it probably isn't fun for most flyfishers who try it. Personally I think it's a tremendous place to be with a flyrod (I know, I know, call me crazy).

Cheers, Ken

Ken,
I'm always impressed with your productions, however, I must say this has to be one of the best! Keep them coming buddy.

Ken,

Anyone guiding / teaching this while wading?

Would love guided trip or clinic for this. Bill please ?!

Bill,
Loren Elliott was guiding for striper in the surf a few years back. Think he moved to the east coast.
Haven't seen a post from him in recent years.
Best,
Larry S

Loren is pursuing a career as a professional photographer and you can see his work on Instagram. Great photographer and great guide. He got me hooked on the surf zone fishing and I caught my first perch with him.
