  • Summary

  • If you're planning to hit the Colorado River near Las Vegas today, here’s what you need to know:

    First off, the weather is looking great with clear skies, a high of around 78°F, and a low of 58°F. Sunrise is at 6:43 AM, and sunset will be at 5:53 PM, giving you plenty of daylight to fish.

    The striper bite along the Colorado River below Davis Dam is going strong. Yesterday, local anglers reported catching several striped bass, with some weighing up to 20 pounds. Rainbow trout are also active, especially after recent stockings. For instance, around 1,150 rainbow trout were stocked at the Laughlin area just a week ago[2][5].

    The river temperature has dropped due to colder storms, which seems to be energizing the fish. The best lures for striped bass right now include anchovies, which have been particularly effective. For rainbow trout, try using small jigs or lures that mimic baitfish[4][5].

    As for hot spots, the area below Davis Dam is a favorite among locals. The Riviera Marina and the Laughlin stretch of the river are also producing good catches. If you're looking for a more specific spot, try fishing near the Willow Beach Boat Ramp, where trout have been actively biting[2][4].

    Overall, it's a great time to be out on the Colorado River near Las Vegas, with plenty of fish to go around and ideal weather conditions. Just remember to check the local fishing regulations and enjoy the day on the water.
