Mohave - Tough Bite and Low Water

2004-11-03 NDOW

Boaters who have braved the recent winds have found only mediocre fishing for striped bass, and most of the fish that have been taken are very small. Several fish that weigh from 2 to 3 pounds were caught on the Arizona and Nevada sides of the lake recently, but most of the catch has been ranging from 8 to 13 ounces.

The water level in the lake has been low, which has been causing some problems for anglers, especially those who have been chasing rainbow trout after the weekly plants at Willow Beach. Trout are scheduled to be stocked Friday (11/5/04) at Willow Beach.
