Walter DeMattos, Nevada Department of Wildlife Creel Census Clerk said that anglers fishing the Overton Beach experienced limited success this past week.
A few largemouth bass were taken with black plastic worms and poppers. The fish measured 12-14 inches.
Stripers were also taken in the area of St. Thomas and Fish Island. The fish were small averaging only 13 inches. Anchovies were landing the fish.
Boaters fishing Echo Bay reported some success for small stripers that ranged from 12-14 inches. The fish were taken with anchovies.
Anglers fishing the lower basin were more successful than the previous week. Boaters fishing in the area near Sand Island had very good success landing striped bass that ranged from 14-16 inches. Anchovies were the bait of choice.
Shore anglers and boaters alike continued to find good success in the Saddle Cove area. Striped bass that averaged 14 inches were taken with anchovies.
Hemenway Cove was very productive for shore anglers as a striper that weighed in at 11 pounds was taken. The fish was taken with a lure that resembled a trout.
Rainbow trout that averaged 11 inches were also taken in that area. PowerBait was landing the fish.
Hemenway Cove, Horsepower Cove, Pumphouse Cove and North Saddle Cove are scheduled to be stocked with rainbow trout today.
Willow Beach shore anglers reported good success for rainbow trout that ranged from 10-12 inches. PowerBait was landing the fish.
Willow Beach is scheduled to be stocked with rainbow trout today.
