Striped Bass
Targeting striped bass near Tobaccoville, NC, means heading to the Yadkin River chain of lakes, primarily Salem Lake and Belews Lake. Belews Lake, known for its warm water discharge from a power plant, can provide consistent striper fishing even during colder months. Spring and fall are still the best times, as the stripers become more active throughout the water column. Focus on areas near the warm water discharge during winter, but be mindful of any restricted access zones. A local's secret is to use live shad or gizzard shad when available, especially when targeting larger fish. Trolling umbrella rigs or casting large swimbaits around points and humps are also effective techniques. Public access to Belews Lake is available, but can be limited, so plan accordingly. Stripers in these lakes can range from a few pounds to well over 20, so be prepared for a potential battle.
