Topwater baits for Stipers?
I am a rookie when it comes to trolling for striper. Can any of the veterans voice their bait of choice when trolling for these giants.

All of the innovations made by the company have resulted in more effective lures as attested to by the number of anglers around the world that have made world-record catches using a wide range of Creek Chub baits. The most notable is one that remains unbroken today. That is the one set by George Perry in 1932 with his catch of a giant 22 pound 4 ounce Largemouth Bass on a Creek Chub Wiggle Fish that he cast into a quiet, cypress filled cove on Lake Montgomery, Georgia. Over the years Creek Chub baits have been credited with establishing record catches of muskie, pike, snook and striper. Thanks fellas! ~Mark |

Hey, Woody! You know a certain guy who wants to catch some stripers really, really bad! His name rhymes with Joefearengineer! If you want to go after some, just let me know. Patoka, Monroe, Brookville, wherever!

Let me just clarify the whole subject:
I have no idea what a stiper is? I do know what a stripper costs and it aint worth it. If you fish non -tidal impoundments then call them stripers If you fish the Chesapeake Bay Proper is refered to as rockfish. If you fish the tidal rivers they are convict-bass If you fish the rock jetties of Cape Cod they are Baaassss (New England accent required) And finally if you fish the west coast they are stripes... Now that is clear the best two trolling baits on all waters are the long jointed deep diving rapala/storm. The botton one in crome blue.. And second is the small umbrella. Both require a hefty rod but they are deadly in all waters for convict-bass Or whatever you call them.. Capt Mike

Let me add that top water is for casting Stillwaters or salty Chug Bugs..

In the rushing water below Wilson dam this time of year a Zara Spook works wonders. In less turbulent water a swimbait is effective.
