California Fishing

I have seen many YouTube videos and watched many people catch stripers, catfish and largemouth bass. My aqueduct territory is in the Palmdale area of Southern California. The aqueduct in those videos seems much wider than where I've tried. Not sure where those are located. The current seems much faster for me as well. Even a 3oz triangle weight still rolls on down the channel. I've tried anchovies, worms, chicken livers and all kinds of lures with no success AT ALL. I've tried under bridges, upstream and downstream from those gates and in the big bends of the aqueduct. The only place I've even seen any fish activity is on those bends where occasionally you see a fish grab a bug off the surface. Is fishing at night any better? Any help would be appreciated

I used to fish the small canals along the border with Mex for Tilapia using a worm and a bobber, but that was 30+ years ago.
