Hybrid Striped Bass
If you're looking for hard-fighting hybrid striped bass, Lake Sharpe near Chamberlain should be on your list. These fish, a cross between striped bass and white bass, are known for their aggressive strikes and powerful runs. Lake Sharpe's open water and abundant forage provide an ideal environment for them to thrive. The best time to target hybrids is during the spring and fall, when they are most active. Look for them schooling near points, humps, and other structure in the main lake. Trolling crankbaits or casting swimbaits and topwater lures can be highly effective. Another great tactic is to fish live bait, such as shad or shiners, near schools of baitfish. Access to Lake Sharpe is excellent, with numerous public boat ramps around Chamberlain. Be aware that the lake can experience strong winds, so check the forecast before you go. A local tip: Many anglers find success trolling umbrella rigs behind planer boards, especially during the summer months when the hybrids are holding deeper. Hybrids in Lake Sharpe can reach impressive sizes, so be prepared for a battle!
