 Reel Mexican Adventures - Lake Huites: Mexico's New Bass Bonanza
According to Hollan, it was in the early 1970's that Lake Vincente Guerrero of northeastern Mexico was a true virgin bass fishery, one that set the standard by which all future Mexican bass fishing lakes would be judged.
For those that missed out on the glory days of lakes like Guerrero and Hidalgo in their prime, Hollan truly believes that they've been given a second chance to experience a fishery that has not yet reached its peak at Huites.
One of the primary reasons for the success of Huites lies in the fact that it was initially stocked with a reported 80,000 Florida strain largemouth bass fingerlings that have matured at a rapid rate and visiting anglers have been astounded by their success.
