Hybrid Striped Bass

Hybrid Striped Bass

Various

If you're looking for some hard-fighting action in Altavista, Virginia, consider targeting hybrid striped bass. While not as common as largemouth, they're present in some of the local reservoirs and offer a thrilling challenge. Leesville Lake is the best bet. These fish are stocked to provide a sport fishery. Hybrids are schooling fish, so when you find one, you're likely to find more. Spring and fall are the best times to target them, as they chase baitfish near the surface. Look for surface activity or use your electronics to locate schools of bait. Trolling crankbaits or casting topwater lures can be effective. Remember that hybrids are known for their powerful runs, so make sure your tackle is up to the task. A local tip: check out the area near the dam at Leesville Lake, as hybrids often congregate there. Be prepared for some intense fights!
