When asked how to catch striped bass, experienced anglers start by emphasizing the rods to use, with 8 to 10-weight suggested for fresh water fishing and 10 to 12-weight for salt water, because the stronger the rod the more leverage you have during the fight with the striper.

That's how to catch striped bass!
