Striped Bass
Landlocked striped bass in Lake Rhodhiss offer a unique freshwater fishing experience. This Catawba River reservoir provides a surprisingly productive habitat for these hard-fighting fish. Spring and fall are prime times, as the stripers move shallow to feed and spawn (although they won't successfully reproduce in the lake). Target areas near the dam, along points, and in the main river channel. Trolling with live shad or crankbaits is a popular and effective technique. Early morning and late evening are generally the most productive times. A key to success on Rhodhiss is to pay attention to the thermocline, as the stripers will often congregate just above it. The lake has several public boat ramps, but be mindful of water levels, as they can fluctuate. While not every striper is a monster, Rhodhiss holds a good population of quality fish, capable of testing your tackle and angling skills.
