LAKE HAVASU — Overnight lows are dropping and local anglers are expecting the water temps to follow suit and improve the already-solid striped bass fishing. Chumming and jigging metered schools in Thompson Bay has been producing for clients of Guide Kenne Probst (lakehavasuboatcharters.com), and they are also getting into some bigger ones on baits rigged on big circle hooks and sent to the bottom. Probst reported finishing off some recent trips targeting channel catfish with the occasional flathead in the mix. Other areas that have been producing good numbers of stripers include Mesquite Bay, Pilot Rock and Havasu Springs.
LAKE MEAD — Decent numbers of striped bass are being caught around Temple Bar by anglers trolling A-rigs, chumming/fishing with cut anchovies and working spoons, jerkbaits and underspins around boiling fish and under working birds. Shore pounders are doing well on channel cats on cut baits in most popular shore fishing areas.
