LAKE MEAD– The smallmouth and largemouth bass scene has been quiet for the most part, but that won’t last long once this warmer weather becomes more consistent. Some panfish guys are tapping into schools of nicer crappie. Mead isn’t known for crappie, but this is the time the limited population bites there. Crappie jigs and the smallest Shad Raps will get them once located. Anglers fishing from shore are all-of-the-sudden picking up large numbers of bigger tilapia to go along with an existing bite on catfish and smaller stripers.

LAKE MOHAVE/WILLOW BEACH– Smallmouth fishing has been decent for numbers in the south half of the lake. No footballs reported, but decent fishing on 4-plus-inch plastics on a drop-shot rig worked over rocky ledges close to spawning flats. Deep cranks are fooling some as well. Some smallmouth are popping up here and there on creatures, tubes and jigs pitched around tules. Trout are stocked every week at Willow Beach Marina near the Fishing Pier.
