Striped Bass Fishing in fresh water reservoirs, lake and rivers , is an offshoot of
the damming of South Carolina's Cooper River in 1941. Stripers had migrated
from the Atlantic Ocean up the Cooper River to spawn. When the river was
dammed to form lakes Moultrie and Marion, stripers that had traveled upriver were blocked from
returning to the sea.
Rather than die they thrived.
The first documented production of striped bass in the country was at the
striped bass hatchery in Moncks Corner
South Carolina in 1961.
Moncks Corner was also a pioneer in developing
striped bass hatchery
techniques.
As a direct result of work at the Moncks Corner Striped Bass
Hatchery, striped bass fishing is enjoyed in freshwater lakes across the
county.
