From Boulder City, it takes me 45 minutes to get to Temple Bar Marina. But you have to go over the Hoover Dam so you want to make sure to cross late at night or early morning...that is if you're going fishing on the weekend. Weekdays are slightly better because there are less tourists then.
I recommend the AZ side of Mead because it's cleaner, less boats, and great fishing. But remember, night fishing is key. I can't guarantee excellent results from day fishing. I think I've tried early dawn fishing and it was okay. Just start chumming and casting right at sunset...and make sure you have a big bucket. I've got a number of good fishing locations so let me know if you'll be doing some shore fishing or boat fishing.
Here are the directions:
From Boulder City, go towards Vons. When you see the Vons, turn left to continue on Highway 93 toward the Hoover Dam. Go past Hoover Dam. I believe between Milemarkers 19 and 20, you will see a sign saying "Temple Bar Resort." Turn left. Watch out....there are no obvious "large" signs. The sign is pretty small but look for the turnoff in the middle divider. Temple Bar is located approximately 28 miles from the turnoff.
Best regards,
