Salmon fishermen, as well as halibut fishermen, often use a "jigging"
technique in this region. It sounds very much like the yo-yoing
described in the article, except they use artificial lures instead of
lead weighted bait fish. Are artificial lures that much less effective
for striped bass?



Striped bass respond to artificial lures, flies, live bait, chumming, et
cetera, just like most other other aggressive fish.
