I had to dig this one up from a recent Mohave Fishing Club picture. Our local anglers are mentored by Gary Regan from our local high school. Gary, along with various assistants, takes groups of local youth out fishing. They mostly target stripers using anchovies while fishing from shore, hitting different spots along the Colorado River with great success.

This club is open to anyone who wants to join, and these outings typically take place when school is out and our smaller stripers are active and biting. I’m sharing this now since the winds have been keeping most anglers off the water, so we haven’t seen many people showing off their catches of trout or the occasional striper.

That said, I’ve been hearing that Rotary Park has been producing some nice limits of rainbow trout lately. It’s a great time of year to throw a spinner in your favorite color, or a nightcrawler works well, too. The striper bite has been slow, but should pick up soon as some of the larger fish are starting to show up and get hungry. Anglers have had better luck with swim baits recently, as anchovies haven’t been producing as well.

Before I close, here’s a shout-out to the fishing club group: Evan Mynk, Ikehna Ndeche, Kade Djuth, Jason Barela, Donavan Barry, Grant Pilling, Miguel Cuellar, Luis Cuellar, Dominie Serco, Jessica Sercu, Aubriella Sercu, Gunner Serco, Jacqueline Barela, Marie Ramirez, Audree Thompson, and of course, Gary Regan. This talented group of anglers is doing great things!

Hope this helps for now. We look forward to seeing you soon to share your catch and your story. Thanks for all the support. Now, go catch a fish!
