i usually fish in the Delta in Antioch. We either go on the pier, Sherman Island, Isleton pier, or Rio Vista. We go for stripers.

What were u using grass shrimp, ghost shrimp, pile worms...?
do you catch it on boat or on shore?

we had a family friend when i was a kid who would go out and bring some real monsters home. said he only used pile worms to catch them, the guy was absolutly insane, he once cut the still beating heart out of the biggest sturgeon ive ever to this day seen anywhere and ate it:wtf he said it helped him be one with the fish and that if a big enough sturgeon ever got him it woulod do the same:rofl

Fishing superstition. Supposedly, if you eat the still-beating heart of a new species of fish you've caught (first one for you), then it helps you catch more of them in the future. Goddamned freaks I say, though it's probably fairly decent with some soy sauce and wasabi. :laughing :laughing
