I used to catch stripers all the time in Brigantine in NJ near Atlantic City, but that was over 10 years ago. That used to be my favorite fish in the world to catch. They fight like they are twice their size.

Are the stripeys at Castaic those hybrid types or are they full blooded stripers?

I know Castaic and Pyramid are well known for the stripers but it is a drive for the San Diego guys I've been thinking Silverwood for a long time but haven't made it there yet. Any other place "sit on top friendly" we could find some striper action?

Silverwood is the only other striper lake I know that an sot is allowed other than Castaic and Pyramid, I believe we should plan one...

Theres always room for a Colorado River trip too.... Good Striper fishing along with everything else is to be had out there.

Silverwood is a crap hole in my opinion. Live 25 minutes from it and don't fish it anymore. Too many dumb wanna be gangsters take their family affairs there and trash the place. The stocked trout are fairly easy to catch on powerbait in any cove, but the striper fishing has never worked out much for me.

Colorado river, further but clean, scenic and fish possibilities all over the place.

A few friends and I went on a overnighter last year and had a blast thumping on some cats.
