FISHING
.

TYPES OF FISH
. The lake offers some of the best year-round sport fishing in the country. Largemouth bass, striped bass, channel catfish, crappie, and bluegill are all popular catches. Rainbow trout can be found in Lake Mohave. Fishermen go for the big trout at Willow Beach, while Cottonwood Cove and Katherine offer great bass and trout fishing. Lake Mead has become famous for its striped bass with an occasional catch weighing in at over 40 pounds. Fishing for striped and largemouth bass is good throughout Lake Mead with crappie, blue gill, green sunfish, and catfish being more prevalent in the upper Overton Arm of the lake..

LICENSES
. Nevada and Arizona share jurisdiction over Lake Mead. To fish from shore you must have a state fishing license. If you fish from a boat, you are required to have a license from one state with a use stamp from the other. A trout stamp is required in addition to any other use stamps if you intend to catch and keep trout. No license is required on Lakes Mead or Mohave for persons under the age of 14 in Nevada and Arizona. Most marinas or local bait and tackle shops sell licenses and stamps.
