LAKE MEAD: Storms passing through the area during the past week have lowered the water temperature and kept angling activity to a minimum.

Boaters are catching striped bass in deep water in Las Vegas Bay, but the bites have been slow in coming. Some success for stripers is being found at the Muddy River and Fish Island in the Overton Arm.

Largemouth bass fishing has been disrupted by storms that drove the fish from their nests. Fishing should improve when warm weather returns.

LAKE MOHAVE: Striped bass fishing continues to be fair in the narrows above Cottonwood Cove, while rainbow trout are being caught near Cottonwood and at Willow Beach.

A weekend storm that passed through the area kept fishing activity to a minimum.
