Lower Sac Stripers: , by Andrew Harris: 3 stars I fished stripers today with my good friend and fellow guide Mike Wright from Sacramento. We fished the Corning area which was very busy with salmon fishermen. Striper fishing was good, although we didn't hook into any big fish today. We landed over a dozen small stripers plus a smallie and a couple pikeminnows. I saw one really big striper today. When I was out two days ago I saw half a dozen big fish that were in the 15-30# range. One was so big it almost scared me. It looked to be 40# as it swam right underneath the boat. There were good numbers of salmon rolling throughout the river today. I talked to some of the salmon guides and results ran the gamut from hooking nothing to hooking ten fish.
