  • Summary

  • As of November 15, 2024, here’s the latest fishing report for Lake Mead, Nevada.

    First off, the weather is looking pleasant with clear skies and mild temperatures, making it an ideal day to be out on the water. Sunrise was at around 6:30 AM, and sunset is expected at about 4:30 PM, so you've got a good window to catch those early morning and late afternoon bites.

    The water level at Lake Mead is currently at 1,061.20 feet, which is 167.80 feet below the full pool, but this shouldn't significantly impact fishing conditions.

    Fish activity has been decent, especially around dawn and dusk. Striped bass are active during these times, and anglers have been catching them near areas like Government Wash and Kingman Wash. Yesterday, several anglers reported catching stripers in the 10- to 12-inch range using anchovies, which work well if kept frozen as long as possible. Black bass are also being found in 10 to 20 feet of water, with plastics in watermelon and green speckled colors proving effective.

    For those targeting other species, channel catfish are taking baits just off the shoreline, and rainbow trout, though less common, can be caught using PowerBait, worms, and small lures like Mepp’s, Panther Martins, and Rooster Tails.

    Hot spots to consider include Crawdad Cove, where trout have been caught after recent plantings, and the areas around the shoreline where catfish are hiding near brush below the shelves.

    Overall, it's a good day to be on Lake Mead, with the right lures and baits you can expect to catch a mixed bag of fish. Just remember to check for any updates on toxic algae alerts before you head out.
