The Lake has Been Producing Massive Fish

by RENO FLY SHOP

The lake has been producing massive fish in the past few weeks!! Surface temps are in the high 40’s to low 50’s and the big fish are taking advantage of the colder water. This is the period of the season that we would consider the middle season. Fishing has been about a fish or two an hour, but most of the fish are 6-8 pounds

Fish are Holding in Moderate to Slower Water

by RENO FLY SHOP

Fish are holding in moderate to slower water, and hugging the bottom. Focusing on pockets and inside seams can prove very productive. European style nymphing will be the most productive by providing sensitivity to light takes. If the water slows down considerably it might be best to throw on an indicator to get a good drift. With smaller flies, adding weight to your rig is key

Worms and PowerBait are Producing

Colorado River - Laughlin

by NEVADA DEPARTMENT OF WILDLIFE

Worms and PowerBait are producing the most bites for trout, with small spinning lures also worth a shot. The areas below Big Bend of the Colorado State Recreation Area and along Casino Row are producing both stripers and trout. Line sides are hitting on anchovies fished off the bottom and pencil poppers and other top-water baits.

Lake Mohave Fishing Report

by NEVADA DEPARTMENT OF WILDLIFE

Striper action continues to improve as the weather cools. Anchovies are the best bait if fishing from shore. Work shoreline areas where there is a drop off into deeper water. Anglers fishing out of Cottonwood Cove have found success in coves during the early morning hours. Imitation rainbow trout and shad lures work well with the right presentation. Stocked rainbow trout will take PowerBait, spinners

Action for stocked rainbow trout has been very good. The fish are taking garlic-flavored PowerBait or Power Eggs. The Nevada Department of Wildlife plans to release rainbow trout at Floyd Lamb, Sunset, and Veterans Memorial parks sometime this week. Cold Creek also is on the schedule.

Striped Bass are Biting Best at Sunrise

by NEVADA DEPARTMENT OF WILDLIFE

According to reports, striped bass are biting best at sunrise when they are actively feeding on shad. Shad imitations and swimbaits work well during this time. Catfish up to 6 pounds are taking anchovies and shad in coves near Callville Bay. With weather changes that include cloudy days and the chance of rain, expect some variations in fishing results.
