Finding Striped Bass, Hybrids and White Bass

All 3 types of fish can be found in similar areas. In rivers, these fish will
move upstream in the spring stopping in pools and eddies along the
way. As the water approaches 58 degrees, these fish will be moving
and they will be very aggressive. In lakes and reservoirs, target dams
and spillways to get into some exciting fishing. They will be there in
large numbers.

As the water warms, fish will move into open water anywhere from 15 to
50 feet deep. They are much harder to find, however, if you find them
you can catch some fish. Many fishermen have binoculars in the boat
and they look for a flock of seagulls circling and dive-bombing the
water. The seagulls are feeding on the shad and the shad are being
chased to the surface by stripers, white bass or hybrids. If you find
circling seagulls, you found some fish. Get over there as fast as you
can for exciting action. Try targeting shallow flats near deep water in
the morning and evening to find fish in the summer. If you consistently
fish these areas at the right times, you will find yourself in the middle of
active schools with birds dive-bombing the water for shad. This is
some of the most exciting fishing you can get into.

In the fall, you can find fish chasing schools throughout the entire day.
Morning and evening are still the best times to fish, but many anglers
find active schools feeding on the surface throughout the day as well.
In late fall and winter, fishing slows down tremendously. If the water
falls below 50 degrees, fishing is tough. In the southern states winter
can be an excellent time to catch fish because the water is still warm
enough for them to actively feed.
