(NDOW) Shad can be found throughout the lake and that has translated into some good top-water striper action when anglers can find striper boils.
The Echo Bay, Vegas Wash, Government Wash, Boulder Harbor, and Hemenway areas are all giving up fish. Though most fish are on the small side — 1.5 to 3-pounds – anglers are catching some larger fish as well.
A member of the Nevada Striper Club reeled in a fish topping 10-pounds during the organization’s weekend tournament.
Largemouth and smallmouth bass also are on the prowl. Spinnerbaits, Rattle Traps and poppers have been taking the fish.
