You have moved to one of the best fisheries in the country. Right now the delta is fishing pretty tough for bass now but is pretty good for stripers. The stripers are starting to feed now on the shad and other bait fish. What I would do is start looking for some flats that are holding the bait fish and use some top water baits, swimbaits and and lipless crankbaits. Look for birds working an area and you'll find the stripers. Another area you can work is the port of stockton. Search around with your electronics and when you find them start spooning for them and that could make for some fun fishing.
If you can, hire cooch for the day. Money well spent .
