17429, Sacramento River 15# Striper
Posted by FishWisher, Fri Jun-05-09 02:41 PM
Hoping to time our trip to Suisun Bay (on N. California's 1000 mile
delta) between windy days, I hooked the boat to the motorhome and
headed for Brannan Island State Rec Area, (one of the parks on the
governator's list to close).

I got settled in on Tuesday, the 2nd, and awaited the arrival of my friend, Willie, for our planned Wednesday trip downriver about 25 miles to the sturgeon honey hole. Two other friends would join us with their boat for the trip.

But we were blown off the river soon after we headed down, and
returned back for some striper fishing near Brannan State Park. My
friends on the other boat managed a nice 15# striper and three more
smaller keepers. Willie and I got skunked except for a couple of
"shaker" stripers, too small to keep.

As I often have to say... maybe next week! :-)
