Here are a few threads about fish brining.  Nothing specific to Stripers I think, but don't know why any of the below couldn't be used on Stripers.

I start by replacing the soy sauce with less sodium soy sauce.
I mix all till the sugar and salt dissolve put in fish then put in the refrigerator over night.
Remove from the refrigerator rinse with water place on paper towels to dry.
Start the 6 rack Bradley set temp at 200 when fish get to room temp put fish in smoker.
set temp at 150 cook for two hr with two Oak and two Cherry after one hr turn racks.
let cool They go real good with a cold beer. ::)
