Hybrid Striped Bass
If you're looking for hard-fighting, open-water predators, the hybrid striped bass population in Lake Francis Case near Platte, South Dakota, is worth exploring. These fish, a cross between striped bass and white bass, are known for their aggressive feeding habits and powerful runs. They tend to school up and roam the main lake, often following schools of baitfish. Trolling crankbaits, casting swimbaits, and jigging spoons are all effective techniques for targeting hybrids. Look for them near submerged humps, points, and along the dam. The best time to fish for hybrid striped bass is during the spring and fall, when they are actively feeding. During the summer months, they may move deeper to avoid the warm surface temperatures. The hybrids in Lake Francis Case can reach impressive sizes, with some fish exceeding ten pounds. The Pease Creek Recreation Area is a good starting point for accessing the main lake. Using your electronics to locate schools of baitfish is crucial for finding the hybrids.
