Hybrid Striped Bass
Hybrid striped bass, a cross between striped bass and white bass, offer exciting fishing opportunities near Marion, Virginia. These fish are stocked in some of the larger reservoirs and river systems connected to the Holston, providing anglers with a chance to catch hard-fighting fish. Look for them in areas with deep water and strong currents, such as near dams and points. Spring and fall are generally the best times to target hybrids, as they become more active during these periods. Trolling crankbaits or casting swimbaits and jigs are effective techniques. Watch for schooling activity, as hybrids often feed in groups. South Holston Lake, while a bit of a drive, is known for its hybrid striped bass population. Remember to check local fishing regulations regarding size and creel limits, as they can be specific to hybrid striped bass. Utilizing electronics to locate schools of baitfish can significantly improve your chances of finding hybrid stripers.
