Sunday 08/29/04- Hit the water early (4:45a.m.)and headed for Las Vegas Wash. Tossed the casting net about a million times and ended up with several dozen nice live shad. Started fishing in Hole 33 at first light and ended up with 18 nice stripers. What a great day of live bait fishing. It seemed like 50 ft. was the depth to fish at. We would hook a shad on a live bait hook at the dorsal fin, squeeze a small split shot about 2-3 ft. up the line and send it slowly to 50 ft. Not long after reaching that depth, WHAM! a nice striper! The fish were really lean. The lake was perfectly calm. We did not see a single boil. I can't wait until we go out again and try our luck at Lake Mead .
