Hybrid Striped Bass
Elberton, Georgia, may not be the first place that comes to mind for hybrid striped bass, but Lake Russell offers a surprising opportunity. This reservoir on the Savannah River provides the open water and forage base that hybrids need. The best times to target them are spring and fall, when water temperatures are moderate. Hybrids will often school near the dam and in the main river channel, chasing shad. A local tactic is to troll with live blueback herring or gizzard shad, if regulations allow, or use artificial lures that mimic these baitfish. Another great access point is the Calhoun Falls State Park boat ramp in South Carolina, which gives you access to the lower end of the lake. Pay attention to the current in the river channel, as it can concentrate the fish. Lake Russell's hybrid striped bass can grow to impressive sizes, offering a thrilling fight for anglers who target them specifically.
