Dennis Kleinpeter’s hybrid striped bass

Dennis Kleinpeter of DeRidder was fishing in his father’s boat with his son-in-law, Alejandro Torres, on Sept. 28 at Toledo Bend when he caught this hybrid striped bass on a bone-colored Strike King KVD crankbait. He took the fish to Buckeye Marina, where the fish weighed 4.51 pounds on certified scales, measuring 23 1/8 inches long and 13 ¼ inches in girth.
