I think that there are stripers, LMB and SMB in Mead along with various panfish, should be trout below the dam in the river.

Mead is filled with stripers and largemouth. Take along a few Zara Spooks and Zara Puppies. Also jigs and soft plastics(dropshot especially). Work the coves with the topwaters and points with the plastics and jigs. Hit the docks with everything! Good luck, Mark.
The trout in the river are probably going to messed up below the dam. They are building a new superbridge there.

Mark, are you going to tell us about the trip? Or do we have to threaten you with bodily harm? LOL!

I was there for a couple of days awhile back. I didnt do much fishing as I was there with my roomie visiting her dad to hang out and sightsee with his new boat.

Stopped at one of the marinas that I cant think of the name of, and there were stripers and HUGE carp hanging around the docks.

Ya those carp are ALWAYS hanging around the docks in the marinas, especially in Lake Mojave. Stupid signs say no fishing off the docks though, which sucks cuz once you get them frenzied they wouldn't stop until you had plucked out every one of them

It was at Callville Bay. I dont remember seeing any no fishing signs but there were alot of people around tossing bread in the water. These things were HUGE. I thought about giving it a try when we got back to the boat after lunch but the fish were gone.

I was at the marina at Lake Mead, and there was hundreds of Carp. I didn't see a No Fishing Sign. Was tempted to catch some for fun, but didn't. People was feeding the Carp popcorn. Their was some stripers mixed in with the carp.
