I figured 39 miles one way from my place to Calville and 66 miles to Cottonwood. So if I am going to Mohave I'd prefer to stay at least 2 days. We had or choice of campsites till Wednesday then things began to fill up.
I will say bring everything with you. The Cottonwood store prices are now very high compared to past years...ice at $5 for a 10# bag...really?
One thing about Mohave versus Mead is on Mohave timing, casting accuracy and quiet presentation are required or you spook the bass. And....Lots more brush to get hung up in.
My partner is not always the most accurate caster and sometimes she is not in synchronization about where the Skeeter might be moving to.... So, for instance, we will have scenes where I am positioning the Skeeter so she can cast into that shadow by a mesquite and she is throwing out back of the boat and not all ready to take advantage of the boat position.
The weed beds at Mohave are about 4 to 6" high at the moment. I was able to fish an open hooked drop shot the whole trip. Green Weenie or Purple weenie
A couple less windy days and a warming trend and I would expect Mohave should be on an excellent senko bite in the shallows.
