Hybrid Striped Bass
Chasing hybrid striped bass near Asheville? Look no further than Lake James. This large reservoir is stocked with hybrids and provides excellent fishing opportunities. The best time to target them is in the spring and fall, when they school up and feed aggressively. Trolling with crankbaits or live bait is a popular technique. Look for schools of baitfish on your sonar and focus your efforts in those areas. A local tip: the Catawba River arm of Lake James tends to hold more hybrids than other areas. Be sure to check the lake's water levels before you go, as they can fluctuate significantly. Hybrid striped bass are powerful fighters, so be sure to bring appropriate tackle. These fish are known to make long runs, so a good drag system is essential. The hybrids in Lake James can reach impressive sizes, with fish over 10 pounds being common.
