Fishing Forum

Weird weekend for a holiday weekend. it was beautiful every day with no wind and glass like lake conditions.

only problem, the fish were hard to find. I finally found a "DECENT" boil on saturday afternoon just before the sun went down and finally threw the kitchen sink at them which was a Firetiger kastmaster lure and they started hitting on them.

We eneded up catching 20+ fish with a nice 4lb striper in the mix.

Other than that, fishing was slow. But the weather should be turning soon i hope and they will start being everywhere.

Nice catch bro... Glad you found some I drove 300+ miles over the 3 days hunting them from shore and didn't find squat haha!!! Some some nice boils just left of the hemmingway harbor but I was about 300 yards short casting from the shore haha!!! The times have changed since I fished the lake... I miss the old days of yanking quality stripers with chovies from the shore.... I thought it was just me but looking at the striper club board and there tourney results it seems there all small any more people getting the big fish award with a 3 to 5 pounder... We used to pull 7 to 12 pounders out of box car "shore fishing" like clock work...now I see a few hefty ones competing for popcorn at the docks ad that's it... I got a boat rented for willow not this weekend but next in hopes of getting a nice quality fish...[fishon]

[cool]Lake mead is a great place to hold this type of event however I wish that the competitors would heed the rules of the road. Last event the bikers were five wide on the road. I also got yelled at by them and spectators for passing. I ride also but but come on guys, use common sense and safety while riding.
