Hybrid Striped Bass
Hybrid striped bass, or 'hybrids', offer a hard-fighting alternative in the waters around Pacolet, South Carolina. While not as prevalent as largemouth, you can find them in some of the larger reservoirs accessible from Pacolet, particularly Lake Blalock. Look for these fish in the deeper, open water areas, especially near points and drop-offs. Hybrids are schooling fish, so if you catch one, there are likely more nearby. Trolling with crankbaits or casting swimbaits can be effective for covering water and finding active schools. Early morning and late evening are often the best times to target them, especially during the warmer months. A local tip: check the reports for Lake Blalock about water releases from the dam. These releases can trigger feeding frenzies as the current brings baitfish to the surface. Be prepared for a battle; hybrids are known for their powerful runs!
