Fishing At Lake Mohave

AKA: Mohave Lake, Mohave Reservoir

Fishing for largemouth bass, smallmouth bass, channel catfish, black crappie, white crappie, rainbow trout, bluegill, green sunfish and striped bass at Lake Mohave in Nevada.

A 67-mile long section of the Colorado River becomes Lake Mohave, behind Davis dam. This 28,800-acre fishery is on the AZ-NV border, in the far southeast corner of the state, at Laughlin. Fishing enthusiasts can explore over 200 miles of shoreline in search of bass, catfish, crappie, trout, striped bass and sunfish. The rough, rugged terrain surrounding this water wonderland limits access to the shore. There are a dozen or more access points, all stemming off Highway 95. Camping, RV parks, marinas, restaurants and other amenities are located at many of these public areas. Fishing from the bank is available at, or nearby these areas as well. Cottonwood Cove Resort and Marina has rental boats, including houseboats, plus a public boat launch ramp. Several primitive launching options are located at various access points for smaller boats, canoes and kayaks.
