LAKE MEAD fishing report

Recent storms have slowed the striper bite. But warmer temperatures should make for good fishing conditions over the weekend. Anglers report fair action for stripers with cut anchovies off the shore and from boats in the Vegas Wash area and Overton Arm. Spoons and top-water lures will take fish near the surface. Catfish have been biting cut anchovies fished off the bottom. Largemouth and smallmouth bass are fattening up for cooler months. Now is a good time to catch some nice fish.
