Striped Bass
While Westlake Village isn't a typical striped bass destination, there are occasional reports of stripers in Westlake Lake. These are likely escapees or stocked fish from other nearby systems. Targeting them specifically can be challenging, but not impossible. The best approach is to fish for them opportunistically, especially during cooler months. Try trolling large swimbaits or crankbaits in deeper sections of the lake. Early morning and late evening are often the most productive times. Given the limited information and sporadic nature of the striper presence, it's crucial to check local fishing reports and verify any recent sightings. Be prepared to adapt your tactics and target other species if stripers prove elusive. Remember to always check for and abide by any specific lake regulations.
