Striper flies.

for the river when the shad are running down, tie a blados crease fly in
1 1/2 inches, silver body with a dark olive back and a spot near its
tail..the stripers are picky then with all that bait runnin..use a
short leader on a sinktip line to get below the surface and strip like
mad..works all the time...

I have a problem. In the last month I'll be in the middle of a bunch of
feeding stripers, throw a white bucktail fly that I tied and can't get bit.
I have one about 2" and one about 3". The fish are eating shad the same
size. Usually when I throw a 2" grub on 6 lb line I'll catch them. These
are fish from 5 to 15 lbs. What do I tie and how do I fish it. Thanks.

If they are on shad, then you might like to try this fly, just vary
the colour scheme and braid diameter;
