The Lake
When at full pool, Lake El Salto is a 24,000-acre man-made reservoir that had been initially stocked with Florida strain largemouth bass fingerlings to jump start the fishery. And these bass have taken a liking to the climate, long growing season and an abundant diet of tilapia and shad. BASSMASTER magazine's editorial staff called Lake El Salto, "the absolute best trophy lake in the world." In-Fisherman magazine headlined their coverage: "Muchos pescados at El Salto." Western Outdoors magazine offered the lake an honorary title of "Mexico's bass fishing mecca." "There's never been a lake like this in the history of bass fishing".
