In the heat of the day on low tide, the punch bite was decent. On high tide a jack hammer chatterbait was good. Overall the bite wasn't as good as I would have expected. A buzzbait is also an option. Frog bite should have been better.

Had an awesome day on the CA delta targeting some striped bass. Caught some nice striper on the Baitsanity antidote. The fish were up shallow feeding in less than 4ft of water. The key was fishing the transition between the high tide to the low tide.
