Striped Bass
Pursuing striped bass near Flemington, WV, means focusing on Tygart Lake. While not a natural habitat, striped bass have been successfully stocked here, creating a unique freshwater fishery. Spring and fall are the optimal times to target these fish, as they tend to be more active when water temperatures are moderate. During the spring spawning run, stripers congregate near the dam, offering excellent opportunities for anglers. A practical tip for fishing Tygart Lake is to use your electronics to locate schools of baitfish, as the stripers will likely be nearby. Trolling large crankbaits or live bait is a common and effective method. Be prepared for a challenge; the striped bass in Tygart Lake can grow to impressive sizes, providing a memorable fight. Note that striper fishing can be influenced by water levels and clarity, so check local conditions before heading out. Remember to check the WVDNR regulations for size and creel limits.
