Can't say for stripers, but for a while they were killer on big Weakfish in raritan bay.. thats was with Powerbait sandworms before GULP products came along. I doubt a striper is any smarter than a big weakfish.

I would think a good sandworm imitation lke the Gulp would be worth a try... Might also put 1/2 a sandworm on the hook along with the artificial one... bob

yeah def might try that this year. sometimes they just get tuned into a specific bite i guess. rather try something like this than sit around all day with clam boogers on those days when they just don't want them.

Thanks for all the kind words guys... Won't be long now if this snow would ever stop

Replenished my supply of Tournament Grade Tackle Bunker Spoons and am chomping at the bit.

For those of you new to trolling spoons, check out this article from one of our sponsors, Rob from TNT about how to set up braid trolling outfit for spoons.
