For “stripe,” the strongest matches are the grubs with baitfish-style action and enough profile to draw striped fish without being too bulky. The 3" Double Action Grub- Pearl DBG3 and Double Action Grub- Blue Ice DBG6 are good smaller-profile options with a wave-and-wiggle tail for finesse or casting around bait. If you want more presence, the 5" curly-tail grubs add a stronger tail kick and are better for covering water or fishing deeper/current seams.
Switch to a bigger bait or a more aggressive presentation if stripers are feeding on larger forage, pushing bait to the surface, or ignoring small grubs. If they want a subtler look, stay with the 3" grubs and slow the retrieve. If you’re fishing deep structure or heavy current, a heavier jig or a different lure category may be a better fit.
