Southern Nevada Fish Reports


Striped bass action is picking up along this stretch of the river

by NEVADA DEPARTMENT OF WILDLIFE
Striped bass action is picking up along this stretch of the river. Some lucky anglers have caught stripers in the 2- to 5-pound class. The fish are taking cut anchovies fished about 20 feet from shore. Stocked rainbow trout can be found below Davis Dam and are hitting PowerBait and night crawlers.

Last Rainbow Plant of the Season

by NEVADA DEPARTMENT OF WILDLIFE
The Nevada Department of Wildlife has finished its seasonal trout plants for the year. Local waters will slowly warm over the coming weeks, and action for warmwater species should improve. Catfish and bass have been seen swimming deep in local ponds but not chasing worms. Night crawlers and mealworms are great go-to baits when fishing with family or friends at the ponds.

Smallmouth and largemouth bass are getting ready for the spawn

by NEVADA DEPARTMENT OF WILDLIFE
Reports have been light from the middle basin of the lake. Bass angling has been slow, even for tournament anglers. Smallmouth and largemouth bass are getting ready for the spawn and can be found in the coves and around the shelves near drop offs in Cottonwood Basin. Though the fish can be found, they are hesitant to hit most plastics. Staff members from the Willow
