FISHING HOT SPOT

Lake Pleasant: Head for the Agua Fria arm of the lake or other areas with inflows. The Agua Fria River flow hit around 1,000 cfs on Monday and was still flowing at around 750 cfs at noon Tuesday. It is likely that Castle Creek and Humbug Creek are flowing as well. Quite often, the best fishing is along the mud lines. Use live bait, such as minnows to catch white bass, striped bass, black bass and channel catfish as well.

FISHING HOT SPOT

Lake Pleasant: Anglers have reported catches of 50 to 100 white bass a day using spoons, shad crankbaits, live shad, cut shad and live minnows. Striped bass are being caught trolling shad imitations in open water around the marina, Castle Creek, Jackass Cove and the entrance to the Agua Fria River. Look for the whites and some stripers to start entering the Agua Fria arm to spawn around the end of the month. The eagle closure is still in effect. Fishing for largemouth bass has been tough. Best bets are drop-shot worms, crankbaits and spinnerbaits. Generally, anywhere from 10-30 feet off ledges are good places to try.
