The striper bite is not very good right now. Either the water is too cold or my flies are terrible or I can't cast a lick or the fish all went back to the bay or I am in the wrong part of the Delta or there are no stripers left in California or they all got caught and eaten by someone else or I just plain don't know how to fish but whatever it is bites are a little hard to come by right now. We might get another wave of fish but the water is 50 degrees already so it might be the fun is over for the Fall. My plan is to keep fishing just in case the fun is not over and a bunch of bruisers come to town looking for a tasty Clouser.

We did not get many bites today but my buddy and I did get one really nice bite as the sun was coming up. Sixteen pounder. The biggest striper I have seen caught. Not the best pictures I have gotten but good enough. Fun stuff.
