 Good morning, anglers! Artificial Lure here with your Colorado River Las Vegas fishing report for Wednesday, May 21st, 2025.

We've got another beautiful day on the water ahead of us. Starting off cool around the mid-60s this morning, but temperatures will climb to near 80 degrees by afternoon. Skies are mostly clear with gentle breezes making for perfect casting conditions. Sunrise was at 5:36 am, and sunset will be at 7:35 pm, giving you plenty of daylight to land that trophy catch.

While the Colorado River isn't tidal in our Las Vegas area, we're experiencing a gradual rise in river levels throughout the morning and into mid-day. This water movement typically pushes fish toward shorelines, coves, and current breaks—perfect ambush points for predatory species.

Striped bass action has been heating up significantly over the past week! Anglers are reporting consistent catches of stripers up to five pounds, especially during early morning and evening hours. Cut anchovies have been the bait of choice, while silver swimbaits, Jumpin' Minnows, and Kastmasters are producing well for those who prefer artificial lures. If you're targeting stripers, Community Park and the area below Davis Dam have been particularly productive.

The largemouth and smallmouth bass bite remains strong as we move deeper into spring. These fighters are holding near structure and drop-offs, with the best action coming on plastic worms, crankbaits, and spinnerbaits.

Rainbow trout fishing is excellent right now, particularly for those willing to try the nearby Storrie Lake State Park, which was stocked earlier this month with over 4,500 rainbows, including some impressive 16.5-inchers. PowerBait, small spinners, and flies are all working well.

For those looking to maximize their chances today, I'd recommend hitting the water early to take advantage of that morning striper bite. Pack a variety of lures and baits since the fish seem to be changing preferences throughout the day. Hot spots worth checking out include the area around Laughlin, Community Park, and Davis Dam.

The spring fishing pattern is in full swing, friends! Whether you're after stripers, bass, or trout, there's plenty of action to be found on our beautiful Colorado River. Remember to stay hydrated out there as temperatures climb and be sure to check your regulations before heading out.

This is Artificial Lure signing off—tight lines and good fishing to all of you!
