I'm interested to know everyones preferred FOW, the logic behind fishing particular depths and how or why that might change depending on the tide. Personally, since I don't have fancy electronics, I've always anchored on a channel edge and sat around all day.

is there any difference between the atom floater and the atom striper swiper besides bouency? because the striper swiper looks promising and nice,but i like floating topwaters

I've learned a lot from you guys up north....stripers love big ass plugs lol... But reading throughout this board....the basics of fishing for the stripers are a little different between here and there.... It may just be me, I'm not speakin' for all of MD but this is how I've had my best luck...
