COLORADO RIVER
LAKE HAVASU — Largemouth bass fishing has picked way up on fun stuff like topwater (incuding buzzbaits, frogs and rats) and spinnerbaits. Flipping has also bee dependable, and there are also some football smallmouth in the mix. Shorepounders are also doing well with the frogs as well as Ned rigs in tule-choked coves. Flathead catfish are biting at night for those targeting them, and a good amount of them are being caught from shore along with some channel cats.
LAKE MEAD — Guide Noah Sanford (LasVegasSportfishing on YouTube) is Emphasizing finding grass when hunting for largemouth bass. If it’s windy, and that has been the case lately, shifting to wind blown points is a worthy adjustment. Recent winds have cooled the water temps down into the low 80s, and baits that imitate shad or bluegill have been productive. Jerkbaits, swimbaits, topwater, craws and worms should all be on deck.
