Hybrid Striped Bass

Hybrid Striped Bass

Various

Hybrid striped bass, also known as wipers, are a thrilling target near Ayden, NC. While not as ubiquitous as largemouth, they are stocked in some local reservoirs and can make their way into the connecting rivers. Look for them in the deeper sections of the Tar River and Contentnea Creek, particularly where there's current or structure. Early spring and late fall are prime times, coinciding with cooler water temperatures and increased feeding activity. A local tip: check with local bait shops for information on recent stocking efforts, as this can significantly impact your chances of finding them. When fishing for hybrids, use larger lures or live bait like shad or herring to entice a strike. These fish are known for their powerful runs, so be sure your tackle is up to the challenge. They can be found schooling, so when you find one, there are likely more nearby.
