Seasonal Activity Chart
Hybrid Striped Bass
For Hybrid Striped Bass near Farmington, West Virginia, the Monongahela River is your primary destination. These hard-fighting fish offer a thrilling challenge. Spring and fall are the peak seasons, as the hybrids are actively feeding and chasing baitfish. Look for them in areas with current, such as below dams or at the confluence of tributaries. Trolling with crankbaits or casting swimbaits are effective techniques. Live bait, such as shad or shiners, can also be productive. A local tip: Focus your efforts near the Morgantown Lock and Dam, as the hybrids often congregate there. Be aware of the strong currents and boat traffic in this area. Also, check the stocking reports from the West Virginia Division of Natural Resources to see when and where hybrids have been released. These fish can grow to impressive sizes in the Monongahela, so be prepared for a battle.
