  • Colorado River Las Vegas Fishing Report: Stripers, Bass, and Trout Thrive on the Water

    Colorado River Las Vegas Fishing Report: Stripers, Bass, and Trout Thrive on the Water
    May 21 2025
    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!

  • Colorado River Las Vegas Fishing Update - Hot Stripers, Active Bass and Trout on the Bite

    Colorado River Las Vegas Fishing Update - Hot Stripers, Active Bass and Trout on the Bite
    May 19 2025
    Artificial Lure here with your Colorado River Las Vegas fishing report for Monday, May 19th, 2025.

    We had sunrise this morning right around 6:20 AM and expect sunset about 7:10 PM, giving us a solid window for a full day on the water. The weather’s just about perfect with highs reaching the mid 80s today and a gentle southwest breeze at 5 to 10 miles per hour. Water clarity is decent, especially earlier in the day before heat and wind stir things up. River flow is steady at about 2900 to 3000 cubic feet per second below Glenwood Springs, which is good news for those planning to cast a line.

    The Colorado here isn’t tidal, but we do see river levels creep up through late morning and into the afternoon due to dam releases. When you see that water level rise, look for fish in current breaks, along shoreline cover, and in the deeper holes. That moving water gets stripers and bass active and on the hunt.

    Fishing has been hot this past week. Stripers are in especially good numbers, many in the three to five pound range, and there’s solid action early mornings and late afternoons. Anglers are catching them on cut anchovies, silver swimbaits, Jumpin Minnows, and Kastmasters, especially when working the drop-offs and deeper runs. Community Park and the stretches just below Davis Dam have both produced consistent catches—those are your hot spots right now if stripers are the target.

    Largemouth and smallmouth bass are also hitting well, with soft plastics and spinnerbaits getting the job done. For trout, keep in mind some of the upstream spawning closures through June 1st, but there are still plenty of open sections where you can find hungry rainbows, especially in the cooler, shaded runs. The annual caddis hatch is in full swing this week, so fly anglers should pack caddis dries, blue winged olives, and a few midge patterns. PMD and small green drake nymphs are also turning heads subsurface.

    Best bait right now for stripers is fresh cut anchovy, but do not overlook artificial lures like silver or white swimbaits and shad imitators. For bass, stick with craw soft plastics, spinnerbaits in white or chartreuse, and try topwaters during the low light hours. Trout will key in on small natural baits, caddis or midge imitations, especially in the cooler parts of the river.

    To sum it up, Community Park and below Davis Dam are your top bets this week. Stripers are biting, bass are moving shallow, and trout are getting fired up as insect hatches take off. The weather is right and the fish are ready to play—tight lines out there, and see you on the water soon[1][2].

    Colorado River Las Vegas Fishing Update May 18, 2025
    May 18 2025
    Good morning, anglers! Artificial Lure here with your Colorado River Las Vegas fishing report for Sunday, May 18th, 2025.

    The sun rose at 5:32 AM today and will set around 7:36 PM, giving us a beautiful long day for fishing. Weather's looking mighty fine with temperatures expected to reach about 82°F with clear skies and light winds from the southwest at 5-8 mph - perfect conditions for a day on the water!

    Water levels on the Colorado are holding steady compared to last week. Current flow is running a bit higher than we saw in early May, similar to the 238 cubic-feet-per-second we reported on the Pecos last week. This increased flow has stirred up some good action for anglers working the river channels.

    Rainbow trout fishing has been excellent following the recent stockings. Storrie Lake near Las Vegas received over 4,000 catchable-size rainbows on May 6th, plus an additional 450 larger rainbows averaging 16.5 inches on May 7th. These fish are hungry and hitting well on small spinners, especially gold and silver patterns. For bait fishermen, salmon eggs and PowerBait in bright colors have been very productive.

    Largemouth bass activity is picking up nicely as we move deeper into spring. They're starting to move closer to shorelines for pre-spawn activity. Plastic worms in watermelon and pumpkin colors rigged Texas-style have been working well, especially during early morning and evening hours.

    Catfish action is heating up too, particularly in the backwaters and coves. Cut bait and chicken liver have been the go-to choices, with most success coming after sunset.

    For those willing to make the short drive, Lake Mead and Lake Mohave are showing good action for smallmouth bass and crappie. The smallies are hitting crayfish-pattern crankbaits and drop-shot rigs with finesse worms.

    Hot spots this week include the area just below Hoover Dam, where cooler waters are holding some nice trout. The Government Wash area of Lake Mead is producing some quality largemouth. For shore anglers, the fishing pier at Hemenway Harbor has been consistently good for stripers.

    Don't forget your polarized sunglasses and plenty of water - it's getting warmer out there! Also, I've noticed fish are hitting more aggressively on tackle with a bit of flash, so add some shine to whatever you're throwing.

    That's your Colorado River Las Vegas fishing report for Sunday, May 18th. Until next time, keep your line tight and your hook sharp. This is Artificial Lure saying tight lines and good fishing to you all!
