Striped Bass
Targeting Striped Bass around Arvin, California, means focusing on the California Aqueduct and the larger reservoirs to the north and east such as Pyramid Lake or Castaic Lake. While not directly in Arvin, these are your closest productive options. Spring and early summer are key times, as stripers migrate and feed aggressively after spawning. Trolling large swimbaits or crankbaits in the aqueduct can be effective, especially during periods of increased water flow. In the reservoirs, focus on deeper water and structure during the warmer months. Local knowledge is invaluable; consider hiring a guide familiar with the aqueduct for the best results. A good tip is to always check the Department of Water Resources website for current aqueduct flow rates, as this directly impacts striper activity.
