I was looking for a good spot to fish for stripers, I go out and fish but to no luck that I always end up Zero cause I don't really know where to find them. I have a 24 foot boat with fish finder and a GPS too.

Any suggestion, Please Help/////
 
It isn't just where you fish, but how you fish. Do you use bait? plug? flyfish? troll? If you plug or flyfish, you can catch nice sized stripers in Franks Tract most of the time. They like to hide out around the weeds which float in the tract.

The majority of stripers are heading out to sea this time of year. They head down the San Joaquin and the Sacramento, go into San Pablo and through the bay. Eventually they go out the gate and spend the summer and fall in the salt water. In the late fall, they return to the Delta to spend the winter. I believe they are motivated by the water temps.
 
Just a couple weeks ago they were catching 30 lb's just west of the Carquinez bridge. (at Rodeo)

They will hang out around structure. They really like rocky points(in the bay) Where they can ambush baitfish when the water is moving but they will prowl around in schools running in with the tides, looking for food too.
