Mike, You're fortunate that the owner of this list- Byard Miller- is a big fan of striper fishing, along with a few others. Give it a little time for them to visit the list and see your post. I'm sure you'll get lots of input. Deb Duran also lives in that area and fishes for stripers. I'm sure she'll pitch in. I'm in the mountain west, so no stripers here. The closest striper I know of is Lake Powell, about 600 miles away.
