Hybrid Striped Bass
While not as common as other species, hybrid striped bass can be found in the Red River near Portland, North Dakota, offering a unique fishing opportunity. These fish are typically stocked in upstream reservoirs and occasionally make their way downriver. The best time to target hybrids is during the spring and fall when water temperatures are cooler, and they are actively feeding. Look for them near areas with current, such as bridge pilings or rocky points. Shad imitation lures, crankbaits, and swimbaits are all effective choices. A local tip is to check the stocking reports from the North Dakota Game and Fish Department to see if there have been recent hybrid stockings in the area. The hybrid striped bass in the Red River tend to be opportunistic feeders and can provide an exciting challenge for anglers. While not as abundant as in some other locations, the chance to catch one of these hard-fighting fish makes it worth the effort. Be sure to use heavier tackle, as these fish are known for their powerful runs.
