Hybrid Striped Bass
Hybrid striped bass, also known as wipers, offer a hard-fighting thrill in the waters near Marianna, Arkansas. While not as widespread as largemouth, the St. Francis River and associated lakes are stocked and support a growing population. Spring and fall are prime times to target these aggressive fish. Look for them schooling near current breaks, points, and submerged structure. Trolling crankbaits or casting swimbaits are effective methods. Live bait, such as shad, can also be very productive. One key to success is finding the baitfish; the hybrids will follow their food source. Access to the St. Francis River is available through several public boat ramps. The hybrids in this area are known for their energetic fights, often making long runs and testing your tackle. Expect to catch fish in the 2-5 pound range, with larger specimens possible.
