Striped Bass
While not as widely known as other species, striped bass can be found in the waters near Benoit, Mississippi, primarily due to stocking efforts in the larger river systems that connect to the area. The Mississippi River itself, and some of the larger oxbow lakes that have direct connections, are your best bet. Spring and fall are the most productive times, as the stripers move in search of baitfish. Look for areas with current, such as near the mouths of tributaries or in the main river channel. Trolling crankbaits or casting swimbaits can be effective. Live bait, such as shad or shiners, can also produce results. Access to these areas often requires a boat, and be aware of strong currents and potential hazards in the river. Check local regulations regarding size and creel limits for striped bass, as they can vary. While not a guaranteed catch, targeting stripers in this area offers a unique and challenging fishing experience.
