We just had a great day of kayak fishing on the Colorado River for largemouth bass. We’ve been fishing mainly at Mittry Lake, but the fishing there has been pretty poor. The wildlife has been very active as spring approaches, the largemouth bass have not gotten the word. The fish that were active at Mittry … Read more
We are kayak fishing for largemouth bass on Mittry Lake. There are other places to fish, but for kayak fishing, Mittry Lake is a great place. Sometimes the fishing can be really terrible for days at a time. Then again, there are the great fish caught on the “one last cast” and the big fish … Read more
A couple local bass fishermen clued us into a couple lesser known fishing spots among the backwaters of the Gila River so we took a few days to check it out. These places are pretty popular with the local fishermen, but not as popular as some other bass fishing spots. They are off the main … Read more
We are still kayak fishing and we are still going after the largemouth bass here in southwest Arizona. The weather is cool at night and in the early morning, but when the sun comes up it warms up pretty quickly. For late winter/early spring, it’s pretty darn nice. We’ve been hanging around Mittry Lake because … Read more
We’ve been dodging windy days to try and get in as much kayak fishing for largemouth bass here in southwest Arizona as we can.

We always take photos, but we’ve been trying to get enough video footage … Read more
We’ve been spending some quality time kayak fishing at Mittry Lake for largemouth bass and are beginning to catch a few fish as we figure the lake out. Like most of the lakes in the Colorado River system, the fishing can be very challenging during the winter months. When it’s hot, it’s hot, and when … Read more
Fortuna Pond, outside of Yuma, Arizona is a small lake or large pond that has some nice size largemouth bass in it, especially given the relatively small size of the pond. It is Community Fishing Water and stocked with trout during the winter months. There is camping around the lake, campers range everywhere from people … Read more
The kayak fishing for largemouth bass continues here in southwest Arizona near Yuma. We’ve been hanging around town waiting for some equipment to arrive and have been fishing at Mittry Lake, which is outside of town to the north along the Colorado River.

We got lucky and scored a lakefront campsite. It’s pretty rare to have what’s known as a “paddle up” campsite where you … Read more
