Hybrid Striped Bass
Hybrid Striped Bass fishing near Norwood, Kentucky, often means targeting tailwater areas below dams on the larger rivers in the region. While not directly in Norwood, a short drive to the Ohio River or the Kentucky River presents opportunities. These hybrids are stocked in several reservoirs upstream and often migrate downstream. Spring and fall are excellent times to target them, as they follow baitfish runs. Look for areas with current breaks, such as points, humps, and submerged structure. Trolling crankbaits or casting swimbaits are effective techniques. Live shad, if legal to use, can be deadly. Check local regulations regarding size and creel limits, as they can differ from pure Striped Bass. The Hybrid Striped Bass in these areas are known for their aggressive strikes and powerful runs, so be prepared for a good fight. Also, be mindful of boat traffic, particularly on weekends.
