Been here 20+ mins and calling it a break to brainstorm, either wrong hook to lure size, non appetizing lures to sir stripes, or the fact it’s getting warmer out a bit. Been out here since 7am in two different spots and it’s 10am now.

Get a 1/4oz jighead. I use vmc boxer jigheads for stripers.
Get some 3.75 strike king rage swimmers.
Small swimbaits are excellent for striped bass.

Are you sure there are stripers in that area? Looks like a smaller panfish right there.

Is there any deep water close to that area? I believe stripers need deeper water I think they like to ambush from the deep
Are you talking actual Striper or what they call “stripe” or “Striper” in the South, which is actually White Bass?

Update: I tried using a swim bait.. still learning, and got snagged, but wasn’t going to lose it since the water wasn’t that deep and it started to grab the fishes attention better.
