Hybrid Striped Bass
If you're after some hard-fighting action in freshwater, Lake Alfred and the surrounding Butler Chain offer hybrid striped bass fishing. These stocked fish thrive in the clear waters and provide an exciting challenge. The cooler months, particularly late fall through early spring, are ideal as the hybrids are more active in cooler temperatures. Target areas near deeper channels and points where the lakes connect. Trolling with crankbaits or casting swimbaits can be effective. Live shad is a top bait choice when available. Keep an eye on water conditions; hybrids often school up in areas with good current. The boat ramp at Lake Alfred Park provides easy access. Note that these fish can be sensitive to changes in barometric pressure, so pay attention to weather patterns before heading out.
