Heading out to Havusu with the family end of March. Never fished the area of the river before. Are there public launch ramps, and are there any stamps we need to purchase with our fishing licenses. Any 411 appreciated, like to get the family on some stripers.

If you have a CA license I believe you need the AZ stamp but your only allowed to fish from a boat with that. No shore fishing in Havasu without an AZ license. Lots of public launch ramps and TONS of good bass fishing that time of year.

NO, NO, NO RRTGuy,

I have been shore fishing Havasu on the Arizona side with my California license w/Arizona Colorado River Special Use Permit for at least a dozen years now and I am not breaking the law.

My special use permit says, "This permit must be pasted on back of any valid STATE OF CALIFORNIA sport fishing license being used to fish from the ARIZONA SHORE or any floating device on waters of the Colorado River south of the Nevada-California boundary."
