Further down river, in the upper big bend area, fishing from his boat using anchovies Ben Aleman and Cheyenne Mace brought in a nice stringer of stripers. Some of the  types of baits that are working is  squid, shrimp, sardines or mackerel. They all tend to produce fish. Anchovies seem to bee anglers choice and hold a good track record of catching a lot of fish. For the lure anglers the hard baits seem to profuse the best here on the river.
