Post spawn aggressive fish moving into summer patterns. Topwater is working well in the backs of the coves in low light conditions. Finesse tactics are best in the crystal clear water.

With the super clear water on Lake Mohave there are times where the finesse techniques are going to prove to be the most successful. It was a slick calm mid morning and the reaction baits would not get bit. I decided to switch it up and throw a Matt Luna Ned Rig and started to get consistent bites along the points. Used a Daiwa Fuego with Berkley X9 braid as the main line, Sunline FC Sniper for the leader, and a homemade ned rig worm, but another great option is the 6th Sense Ned Fry cut in half.

Mohave can have very windy conditions at times, and with the clear water this makes for the best chance at catching fish on reaction baits. I decided to throw a homemade spinnerbait in a shad pattern around exposed brush and reeds. I managed to catch a number of smallmouth and largemouth bass just covering water.
