We catch them all on shad caught in the lake with a throw net. They can be dead or alive, I've never noticed it mattering much. If you use them dead, give them a squeeze to get some of their blood and guts oozing out. Change the bait fairly often, as the goodies wash off and then the bait doesn't have it's scent anymore.

can u tell me like on what to catch them on

[martyschmied]

You could use light line, but the lengthy time needed to "play them out" ends up killing them, as they expend all their energy during the fight.. We like to catch and release so that other people can enjoy the fight. And yes, it's a blast.

yeah a broom stick and 20# test is fun. not really

[pshm187]

how do you catch wipers in Kansas. I live in SE KS near some good lakes Big Hill has a wiper run, but i've never caught one.

[chucksblaze]

@pshm187 All depends on what size range you have 3-4 inch silver spoons,3-6 in curly tail grubs white,charteuse,and pumpkinseed are good colors.Rattle traps shad,firetiger,and bluegill color.Swimming minnow jigs firetiger,smelt,sassy shad, and bluegill color.Berkly Gulp 4 inch swimming minnows and drop shot shad are the best articial baits rig with a 1/8 ounce jighead, size 0 weedless wormhook rig, or a 2/0 round shank hook and hook it through the eye area those are all good baits.

Great video. My favorite thing to use is a Mimmic Minnow, but it seems like shad work great too!

[YoojYim]

They are fun as shit to catch!

[nubializacion]

Awesome vid! Will be at Milford the whole summer!

Nice catches! The only thing that worries me about hybrids is that one day, the pure white bass and the pure stripers may become obsolete. Heard that hybrids are sterile, but research found recently that the males are somewhat fertile. Just worried that the pure striper population may become tainted because I love fishing for pure stripers. Nice vid though.

I've heard of "Wipers" once before, but never seen them until now, brother-in-law lives in Colorado and he says they are D-E-L-I-C-I-O-U-S!!!!!!!!!! Great catch guys!
