I walked the shoreline by Boulder Beach and the fishing pier there last week and I didn't see any fish so I rented a boat from the marina. There are tons of big carp and lots of small striped bass hanging around the marina waiting to be fed but fishing is not allowed from that marina and bowfishing is not allowed within 1/2 mile of a marina or swimming area. They have small pontoon boats for rent there for $40 an hour. I went out for two hours and drove around the southwestern part of the lake and only got a glimpse of two small bass. I did have a couple of coyotes come up close to me.
A couple of days later, I checked out Willow Beach on the Colorado River below the Hoover Dam. I knew a guy who used to spear fish there for carp but I didn't see anything from the shore.
If anyone knows a good place to bowfish in Lake Mead or the Colorado River, please let me know.
