Hybrid Striped Bass
Hybrid striped bass, or wipers as they're often called, can be a fun and challenging target near Galena, KS. While not as common as in some other parts of the state, these hard-fighting fish can be found in the Spring River, especially in the deeper sections and around structure. The best time to target wipers is during the spring and fall when water temperatures are cooler. They're aggressive predators, so look for them feeding on shad or other baitfish. Casting crankbaits or swimbaits that imitate these prey is a good starting point. Trolling can also be effective. Access to the Spring River varies, but there are several public access points. Check with the Kansas Department of Wildlife and Parks for updated stocking reports, as wiper populations are often maintained through stocking programs. Be prepared for a good fight; these fish are known for their powerful runs.
