The California Delta offers awesome striper fishing, but let’s face it… it’s also an incredibly intimidating place.

With over 1,000 miles of channels, sloughs and flooded islands, finding and catching striper can be a daunting task. The question I most often get from folks is:

“Where the heck do you begin?”

In this how-to guidebook, I cover everything you need to get out there and start catching fish. I’ll share with you the valuable striper techniques I’ve learned from my 16 years of guiding, from understanding tides, to the structure stripers prefer and what exactly you need to look for in a spot.

This how-to guidebook is loaded with color photos and diagrams that will help you unlock the gigantic puzzle that is the Delta!

Weedy Flat Diagram – Delta Striper Fishing

In the book, I’ll teach you all the basics (and share some cool insider info too) of how to catch stripers using my three favorite techniques: Topwater, Swimbaits and Jigging Spoons.

For less than the price of one lure ($3.99), you'll be well on your way to hooking the Delta’s top gamefish!
