Unlike many charter operations, all of our Lake Havasu trips are completely private. You will never be combined with strangers. Your group has the boat and captain dedicated exclusively to you throughout the trip.

Our U.S. Coast Guard licensed captains bring years of experience and local knowledge to every trip. We constantly monitor seasonal patterns, fish movement, weather conditions, and current fishing reports to help maximize your opportunities on the water.

Comfortable Boats Designed for All Conditions

Fishing should be enjoyable regardless of weather conditions.

Our boats feature full covers that provide protection from the Arizona sun, wind, and changing weather conditions throughout the season.

During the cooler winter months, our heated cabins provide a comfortable place to warm up while enjoying some of the best striped bass fishing Lake Havasu has to offer.

Whether you’re fishing during a cool January morning or a warm spring afternoon, our goal is to keep your group comfortable throughout the day.

Lake Havasu Striped Bass Fishing

Lake Havasu has become one of the premier striped bass fisheries in the Southwest.

Striped bass are known for their aggressive strikes, powerful runs, and excellent table fare. Depending on the season and conditions, anglers may experience steady action while targeting schools of actively feeding fish throughout the lake.

Our captains use proven techniques and local knowledge to help put guests in the best position possible for success.

Whether your goal is catching your first striped bass or filling the cooler with delicious fish for dinner, Lake Havasu offers exciting opportunities throughout our November through April season.

Seasonal Redear Sunfish (Shellcracker) Fishing

During the spring months, Lake Havasu becomes one of the country’s most popular destinations for redear sunfish, commonly known as shellcrackers.

These powerful panfish are famous for their size, strength, and outstanding table fare. Every spring, anglers travel from across the United States hoping to catch trophy-sized redear sunfish from Lake Havasu.

When conditions are right, redear fishing can provide fast-paced action and some of the most enjoyable fishing opportunities available anywhere in Arizona.

Bonus Species

While striped bass and seasonal redear sunfish are our primary target species, anglers occasionally catch:

• Catfish
• Largemouth Bass
• Smallmouth Bass

These species are considered bonus catches and may be encountered depending on seasonal conditions and fishing location.

Perfect For

• Families
• Friends & Vacation Groups
• Corporate Outings
• Bachelor Parties
• First-Time Anglers

We enjoy introducing newcomers to fishing just as much as helping experienced anglers pursue their next memorable catch.
