SumoNinja Posted September 25, 2020 Report Share Posted September 25, 2020 Local striper boils are so hit or miss this summer. After couple trips of no luck, I FINALLY got lucky in the clutch. All the right decision making from location, position to bait selection all came together. 10 minutes after this catch we had to return the rental boat. I usually tie direct on the punker but I swapped out an A rig real quick for the punker to get distance. It was the right choice because I barely reached the edge of the boil. Made the previous blanked trips well worth it. I got c2c on the gopro but I need to work that out since I'm a total gopro noob Jzxmnky, FishDr, IRONSHEIK and 11 others 14 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's out in your neck of the woods huh? It's a grind out there. Everyone is struggling to find em this summer. It's all luck too, and weekends suck because of all the water traffic. But good luck out there man El_Weruso 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are u not supposed to cast inside them or can't be next to them? The staff ride by throughout the day and just ask that u not tie your boat to the buoy lines. If you're not supposed to cast inside, they don't enforce it. Ppl do it all the time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Lee Posted September 27, 2020 Report Share Posted September 27, 2020 (edited) We got the $240 ticket not even tie to the buoy line with no warning . We use our own anchor but he did not agree . The sheriff said we are not supposed at the buoy 100ft . Well, I guess is not a lucky day for us.

Bassmeister Posted September 27, 2020 Report Share Posted September 27, 2020 Nice fish!!!! Castaic is ruled with an iron fist. One year I was threatened with a 380.00 dollar ticket for returning to the docks 45 mins late. I pleaded my case saying my outboard wouldn't start and was spared the ticket thankfully.

Theres tons of video on yt of people at the buoy lines casting inside on boils. Thanks for the info though @Bassmeister that iron fist has softened it seems. But then again it isn't my home lake, I don't go much. Just a handful of times a year but every time I go I see the same thing. Few boats lined up at the buoys if there's fish activity Edited September 27, 2020 by SumoNinja Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah you got lucky . My friend got it for $435 from buoy with no deal from the judge. My advice “Don’t Do It” they spot him from way outside that cove.
