Devils Throat is a reservoir in Clark County, Nevada.
The recorded size of Devils Throat is missing; fish one short bank carefully before deciding whether a wider search makes sense.
The fish mix here is not confirmed, so check fresh local information before choosing a target or keeping a catch; begin near moving water, then use a smaller lure in clear water.
Begin with one slow bottom presentation and one moving bait, then let bites show whether fish are holding close to cover or roaming open water; look along a shallow shelf, then keep the presentation close to useful cover.
Start where two things meet: weeds and open water, rock and mud, a point and a drop, or clear water and dirty water; fish that edge at more than one depth before leaving it; use water color to choose the first lure, then fish the edge from top to bottom.
Early in the year, protected water and the first warm afternoon can be the best clues; as the water heats up, check deeper edges without assuming every fish is on the bottom; cooling fall water often makes points and firm banks useful again; follow the outside weed line, then keep one slow bait ready.
a medium spinning rod, 8-pound line, a small box of jigs, a few crankbaits, and a simple bottom rig cover most situations; change depth or speed before changing every piece of tackle; check a protected pocket, then use the old channel as a guide.
Record the wind, water color, water depth at the strike, and cover after a bite; those four notes are more useful on the next trip than a long list of spots that did not produce; fish the edge from top to bottom.
