Rainbow Trout
Looking to hook some Rainbow Trout near Bullhead City? The Colorado River below Davis Dam offers a unique tailwater fishery. The constant cool water release creates a favorable environment for trout year-round, even when the desert heats up. While you can catch them any time, the cooler months, from late fall through early spring, generally provide the most consistent action. Focus on areas with current breaks and submerged structure. A key to success here is matching your presentation to the prevalent forage. Small nymphs and midges are often effective, particularly during periods of low insect activity. Don't be afraid to experiment with different depths, as trout will move up and down in the water column depending on the water temperature and current. Access is readily available at Davis Camp and Rotary Park, but be aware that the river can fluctuate rapidly depending on dam releases.
