Hybrid Striped Bass
Targeting hybrid striped bass near Old Fort, North Carolina, requires a bit of a drive, but it's worth the effort. Lake James, a short distance north, is the key location for these hard-fighting fish. Hybrids are stocked in Lake James, creating a thriving population that provides excellent angling opportunities. These fish are known for their aggressive strikes and powerful runs, making them a favorite among local anglers. Spring and fall are the most productive times to fish for hybrids. During these seasons, they can be found schooling near the surface, chasing baitfish. Trolling with crankbaits or casting topwater lures can be highly effective. Look for areas with current or structure, such as points and humps. Local tip: check the Lake James water levels before you go, as they can fluctuate. Also, early morning and late evening are often the best times to find these fish actively feeding.
