Hybrid Striped Bass
If you're looking for hybrid striped bass action near Oriental, NC, you'll want to focus on the larger bodies of water like the Neuse River and its connecting creeks. These hybrids, a cross between striped bass and white bass, thrive in the open water. The best time to target them is during the spring and fall when water temperatures are moderate. Look for schooling activity, often indicated by birds diving or surface disturbances. A key local tip is to watch for areas where the river narrows or currents converge, as these spots often concentrate baitfish and, consequently, the hybrids. Trolling with crankbaits or casting swimbaits can be effective, but live bait fishing with shad or herring is a surefire way to get their attention. Hybrids in this area are known for their strong fight, so be sure to use appropriate tackle.
