Trolling Umbrella Rigs For Striped Bass At New Hogan Lake
Спорт
My boys have been asking to fish every weekend so I decided to take them to New Hogan Lake. New Hogan is about 45 minutes east of Stockton. We didn’t get there till almost 9am since it’s nearly a 3 hour drive if you factor in bathroom breaks for the kids. We trolled the Tackle Builders Atlas Rigs on the eastern part of the lake and for the next 3-4 hours it was non stop action.
You’d drop down the atlas umbrella rig and seconds later it’s fish on.
We caught 17 chunky stripers and one weighing at least 8lbs on the blue shad atlas rig. We must’ve been doing something right since I didn’t see any other boaters hookup who were casting or trolling in the area. Only glaring eyes to see what we were using as the kids reeled in their catch.
Now you know. Go get em!

Killing it like always. Making memories and talking the kiddos out. Those hogan stripers are picky. One day they want white, other day they want something with blue. Those striper definitely are bigger then before.
Wowza! That is really non stop action! Great job! 👍

I use to be a member of fishaholics on FB. I got off social media about a year ago. I started working at bass pro shops Manteca in November. Twice a week people come in asking for umbrella rigs! You have done great getting that thing out on the platform!! I can already see it being in every major tackle shop! 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

Thanks brother. You should get back on if only for reports on FishAholics. If management wants to support a product designed and made from one of their own in Cali, let me know and I'd be happy to supply Bass Pro Shops. Tight lines!
Such a cool video. These boys will forever have a passion for fishing 🎣. Nice work 👍

Fished it 6/21/21. Was introduced to your atlas rig. Rolled anchovies 5’ behind. Looks like you just use swim baits. It is a great stripper lake. No size restrictions and ten fish limit. Our smallest fish was 22” but was the hardest fighter! Would like to fish with you there or San Luis. I am in Merced. Steve

Awesomeness. I have a downrigger but never use it on Atlas Rig. How far is your set back before you clip on to the atlas rig line. By the way, thanks for taking your time helping today. Really appreciated, Meng.

Usually 50-100’ but on this trip only 25’. They weren’t that shy so it worked out. I’m always happy to help brother.
Which size of the line counter reel do you recommend. Going to get a shimano tdr 7'0 MH rod to go with it to troll the atlas rig.
When a good time of year to troll there
I live close to that lake, I’d love to learn from you.
Is there a higher bag limit for hogan? Or is it still two per angler? Thank you!

@@brnburner666 It depends. If you’re not using downriggers than 30lb mono or braid works. If you’re using downriggers and using braid, I suggest using 80lb so the clips can hold it better
What made you changed the spelling of your last name like that? Future generation kids with last names "Xiong" n "Xyong" will end up marrying each other. That's not right.

The better question is why is this the only lake in northern California with such high limits.
