Striped Bass
Targeting striped bass near Gregory, South Dakota, means heading to the Missouri River and its impoundments, primarily Lake Francis Case. This vast reservoir provides ample habitat for stripers, and they are stocked regularly to maintain a healthy population. The best time to fish for striped bass here is during the spring and fall migrations when they move up and down the river system. Look for them near the dam, in the tailrace, and along main channel points. A local strategy that proves effective is trolling large crankbaits or swimbaits at various depths until you locate the fish. Another tip is to use live bait, such as shad, when available. The striped bass in Lake Francis Case average between 5-10 pounds, with larger fish reaching upwards of 20 pounds. Be aware of the regulations regarding size and possession limits, as they can vary.
