Record Striper

[Tim524]

 I forgot to mention that right before we got to Lake Skinner last week, someone caught the Record Striper..... 33 Pounds. I was talking with one of the local fisherman that keeps his boat there and fishes the lake on a regular basis, he showed me a pic of the fish. The guy that caught it was in a canoe, can you imagine the sleigh ride ? The fish died and wasn't able to be released but I bet there are a few more Monsters in there, it's a good sized lake.

Love stories of big stripers. Do you ever head over to Silverwood? I've heard they have a hefty population of 40lb+ stripers, with the record being 55.

33#? That's more of a mullet.....  lol

Spent almost a decade fishing the Sacramento River for stripers,  my largest was 28 lbs

33# for that lake is a really nice fish.  My PB was only 42, but that was an ocean fish.
