i have done hours and hours of time and research on stripers in the reedsport area , the fishery is not what it used to be at all , very slow almost non existent, there are fish there but it takes a lot of water time to find them and they move all the time , bait , water temp, current , moon , all make a major roll as to where they will be , its a very tough fishery anymore , used to be easy , not any more
