fullcoupe Posted January 26, 2017 Posted January 26, 2017 I'm going to be in the CA desert next week. There's a few lakes out there by the river that get trout plants - one of them got a plant earlier this month. I don't see any others scheduled. I'm not certain of the water temp, but I know the depth is around 12-15 ft in most areas. I'm thinking of trying the swimbait bite - is there anything else that might be effective this time of year? Maybe a swim jig, jerkbait, or a slow spinnerbait? I've always been fooled by the bass in the river... Quote
Super User Angry John Posted January 26, 2017 Super User Posted January 26, 2017 I have been doing very well on 4"swimbaits and swimjigs with 4" tails. Might also try a lizzard. I never leave home without the dropshot either. 1 Quote
Super User WRB Posted January 26, 2017 Super User Posted January 26, 2017 What area, south of Havasu? Tom Quote
fullcoupe Posted January 26, 2017 Author Posted January 26, 2017 Yes, south of Havasu in the valley. Quote
Super User WRB Posted January 27, 2017 Super User Posted January 27, 2017 Wish I could help, it's been decades since duck and goose hunting or bass fishing north of Blyhe at Lost lake and south at Cibola. Lost lake had some big bass that we caught on spooks, Cibola on black jigs. Good luck. Tom Quote
