IMO the big guys just have different metabolic rates, and so have a slightly different feeding pattern. The biggest Stripers I have caught have been tight to the bank, or in shallow water. Why, again, IMO, the big guys don't waste energy chasing 2 inch shad around. They want to move in and nab a 10 inch gizzard, or a big bluegill, or a big alewive. And where do we find such bait fish? Tight to structure. Again, JMO, but when I want to focus on size, I tend to go shallow and tight to banks that I suspect will hold "big bait things there".
Justin fishes more than me, what ya thing Justy-my-man?
