Southern Nevada Fish Reports

I have been getting word that near the dam on Lake Mohave is producing some stripers no word from the area above the power lines as of yet.

Fishing continues to be good around the lake for rainbow trout. The fish are taking a variety of baits and lures. Fly-fishermen have been doing well with Woolly Buggers in brown, black or olive colorations.

Anglers are finding some success at the upper marsh for panfish and catfish. Mealworms or night crawlers below a bobber will catch fish.

Below Davis Dam and along Casino Row Anglers have found good fishing for rainbow trout. Some anglers have gone home with their limit. Seasonal trout plants have ended, so trout anglers will have to try different locations to find the fish. Largemouth bass are biting on worms. Striper action has picked up, and one angler from California stopped by Rusty’s Riviera to share the tale

Lake Mohave is starting to produce some good stripers as well. Black bass action has been good when the weather cooperates. Largemouth are showing signs of spawning activity.

Largemouth bass fishing has picked up because it’s spawning season and they are easier to find. Look for white circles with a gravel bottom in shallow water. NDOW encourages anglers to practice catch-and-release when possible during the spawning period. Striper fishing is picking up as well. Despite the rough weather conditions over the weekend one lucky angler reeled in five stripers.
