Lake Mead is located on the Nevada / Arizona border. It is the
largest man-made lake and reservoir in the United States. The
lake was formed by water impounded by Hoover Dam and it
extends 110 miles behind the dam. Lake Mead is a popular lake
for fishing and boating, although it has been going through a
drought (February 2008), which has had an impact on the lake.
To keep up with what's going on with Lake Mead, make sure to
follow the news because the drought has been followed in the
national news. Here is a link to a news article about Lake Mead
possibly drying up by 2021. We will continue to update this page
periodically, but make sure to follow the news if you want current
updates.
Lake Mead provides a good fishery for largemouth bass, striped
bass, crappie, bluegill and catfish. The lake is known for its
excellent striped bass fishing with an occasional fish in the 30 to
40 pound range. It is fairly common to get your limit if you are an
advanced angler or with a fishing guide. Smallmouth bass have
been present in the past few years, although, people aren't sure
how they got into the lake.
For information regarding fishing guides, marinas, lodging and
bait shops, check out our Lake Mead page for Nevada, since
most of the businesses that we found for Lake Mead were located
in Nevada.
We did find the Willow Beach Harbor Marina and it is located in
Arizona.
