We are camping some distance from the nearest city so it&#8217;s difficult to get there to use WiFi to make blog posts. We don&#8217;t carry our laptop into the desert, only the stuff we need to camp and fish. Today, we are in town downloading photos and video to the laptop, tomorrow we will upload the blog post and head back out into the desert because the fishing is getting good as the weather warms up. Here in the city, there is panic and hoarding as coronavirus fear, unfounded or not, has gripped the town and we are more than willing to get out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now that the water temperature of the Colorado River and adjacent waters has warmed enough to get the fish biting after a long winter break, the biggest problem is the wind. The nights and early mornings are still cool, causing the warming water to steam until the sun comes up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" src=\"https:\/\/watermanatwork.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/CoolDesertMorning.jpg\" alt=\"The misty Colorado River on a cool spring morning\" class=\"wp-image-5983\" srcset=\"https:\/\/watermanatwork.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/CoolDesertMorning.jpg 600w, https:\/\/watermanatwork.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/CoolDesertMorning-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Even if it is cool and overcast, the fishing in the early mornings before the wind comes up has been pretty good. We&#8217;ve caught some nice largemouth bass that makes the paddle out in the dark early morning well worth it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"512\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/watermanatwork.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/SquawLakeLargemouthBass2-28-20.jpg\" alt=\"Nice largemouth bass caught by watermanatwork.com kayak fisherman Ron Barbish\" class=\"wp-image-5984\" srcset=\"https:\/\/watermanatwork.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/SquawLakeLargemouthBass2-28-20.jpg 512w, https:\/\/watermanatwork.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/SquawLakeLargemouthBass2-28-20-256x300.jpg 256w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 512px) 100vw, 512px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Paddling around in the dark is a bit spooky. There isn&#8217;t much boat traffic, but there are floating and submerged logs and trees. Morning is a popular time of day for bugs. You can&#8217;t see them, so it&#8217;s best to stay covered up. Not too many dangerous animals, but you still have to be alert because there are things you need to look out for, like this water snake.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"284\" src=\"https:\/\/watermanatwork.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/ColoradoRiverWaterSnake.jpg\" alt=\"Colorado River water snake\" class=\"wp-image-5985\" srcset=\"https:\/\/watermanatwork.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/ColoradoRiverWaterSnake.jpg 600w, https:\/\/watermanatwork.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/ColoradoRiverWaterSnake-300x142.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>When fishing on the lakes connected to the Colorado River, the largemouth bass tend to hang out in and under the vegetation that line the banks. Casting into these shoreline plants is normally where you find a lot of bass.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" src=\"https:\/\/watermanatwork.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/KayakFishingInReeds.jpg\" alt=\"Kayak fishing for largemouth bass in the shoreline reeds\" class=\"wp-image-5986\" srcset=\"https:\/\/watermanatwork.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/KayakFishingInReeds.jpg 600w, https:\/\/watermanatwork.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/KayakFishingInReeds-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>It doesn&#8217;t seem that big fish would be hanging out in dense reeds and shallow water, but they are. Extracting big bass from these reeds is quite a challenge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"462\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/watermanatwork.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/SquawLakeLargemouthBass3-7-20.jpg\" alt=\"Largemouth bass caught by watermanatwork.com kayak fisherman Ron Barbish\" class=\"wp-image-5987\" srcset=\"https:\/\/watermanatwork.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/SquawLakeLargemouthBass3-7-20.jpg 462w, https:\/\/watermanatwork.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/SquawLakeLargemouthBass3-7-20-231x300.jpg 231w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 462px) 100vw, 462px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>We&#8217;ve tried a number of fishing spots as the water warms up and the fishing gets better. The lakes warm up quicker than the Colorado River, especially the shallow sections. Because water is always being released from dams, the river nearly always has some current and the water, from the bottom of the upstream reservoir, is colder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" src=\"https:\/\/watermanatwork.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/ColoradoRiverKayakLaunch.jpg\" alt=\"Kayak launch on the Colorado River\" class=\"wp-image-5988\" srcset=\"https:\/\/watermanatwork.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/ColoradoRiverKayakLaunch.jpg 600w, https:\/\/watermanatwork.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/ColoradoRiverKayakLaunch-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>The weather is not the only concern here in the American southwest.

A familiar sight anywhere in the western United States.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" src=\"https:\/\/watermanatwork.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/ColoradoRiverFire2-29-20.jpg\" alt=\"Wildfire on the banks of the lower Colorado River\" class=\"wp-image-5989\" srcset=\"https:\/\/watermanatwork.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/ColoradoRiverFire2-29-20.jpg 600w, https:\/\/watermanatwork.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/ColoradoRiverFire2-29-20-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Along with the persistent wind, there have been a number of severe rain events that have caused flash flooding. In between storms, there has been some good fishing, but you don&#8217;t want to be out on a kayak during a desert thunderstorm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" src=\"https:\/\/watermanatwork.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/DodgingDesertStorms.jpg\" alt=\"Kayak fishing between severe desert rain and wind storms\" class=\"wp-image-5990\" srcset=\"https:\/\/watermanatwork.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/DodgingDesertStorms.jpg 600w, https:\/\/watermanatwork.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/DodgingDesertStorms-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>When the wind is calm, it&#8217;s tough to beat a beautiful desert morning as the sun comes up over the low lying hills.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" src=\"https:\/\/watermanatwork.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/SunriseGlass.jpg\" alt=\"Calm morning glass as the sun rises over the low desert hills\" class=\"wp-image-5991\" srcset=\"https:\/\/watermanatwork.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/SunriseGlass.jpg 600w, https:\/\/watermanatwork.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/SunriseGlass-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"508\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/watermanatwork.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/SquawLakeLargemouthBass3-5-20.jpg\" alt=\"Early morning largemouth bass caught by watermanatwork.com kayak fisherman Ron Barbish\" class=\"wp-image-5992\" srcset=\"https:\/\/watermanatwork.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/SquawLakeLargemouthBass3-5-20.jpg 508w, https:\/\/watermanatwork.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/SquawLakeLargemouthBass3-5-20-254x300.jpg 254w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 508px) 100vw, 508px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>As winter fades and spring takes over, the fishing is getting better every day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" src=\"https:\/\/watermanatwork.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/JumpingSquawLakeBass.gif\" alt=\"Kayak fishing for largemouth bass with watermanatwork.com\" class=\"wp-image-5993\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>The largemouth bass are currently in pre-spawn mode. They are making spawning nests and hanging around the shallow water reeds. The clear water makes the fish easy to spook, sneaking up on a kayak does a good job at this. Pretty soon, mating will take place and the bass will be guarding these spawning nests and attacking anything that comes close.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" src=\"https:\/\/watermanatwork.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/SpawningNest.jpg\" alt=\"Largemouth bass spawning nest\" class=\"wp-image-5994\" srcset=\"https:\/\/watermanatwork.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/SpawningNest.jpg 600w, https:\/\/watermanatwork.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/SpawningNest-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Even in pre-spawn mode, there are plenty of big largemouth bass moving around. Usually the big bass are the first to become active as the water warms up and that certainly seems to be the case.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"459\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/watermanatwork.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/SquawLakeLargemouthBass3-13-20.jpg\" alt=\"Nice largemouth bass caught by watermanatwork.com kayak fisherman Ron Barbish\" class=\"wp-image-5995\" srcset=\"https:\/\/watermanatwork.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/SquawLakeLargemouthBass3-13-20.jpg 459w, https:\/\/watermanatwork.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/SquawLakeLargemouthBass3-13-20-230x300.jpg 230w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 459px) 100vw, 459px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>We are looking forward to more great fishing as long as the wind does not shut down kayak fishing operations. This is a great time of the year in the desert and we want to take advantage of every day we can.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" src=\"https:\/\/watermanatwork.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/SquawLakeSunrise.jpg\" alt=\"Sunrise over Squaw Lake near the lower Colorado River\" class=\"wp-image-5996\" srcset=\"https:\/\/watermanatwork.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/SquawLakeSunrise.jpg 600w, https:\/\/watermanatwork.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/SquawLakeSunrise-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Of course we don&#8217;t know what&#8217;s going to happen with the whole coronavirus deal. Common sense seems to be in short supply and the &#8220;every man for himself&#8221; syndrome seems to have gripped the population. We&#8217;re headed back out into the desert wondering what civilization is going to look like the next time we come to town. We continue to make photos and video and will publish them as long as we are able, so check back soon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It&#8217;s been a long time since we made a kayak fishing blog post.
