For any information about new fishing spots I always check with Ivy at Nevada Department of Wildlife. I asked her about Wetlands Park myself 2 weeks ago because I live a lot closer to it than Floyd Lamb but she told me the water there is closed to fishing. The text in the new edition of fishing regulations for this year states that as well.

Here is some helpful contact info:


Nevada Department of Wildlife

website: http://www.NDOW.org

phone: 702 486-5127
Press 3 when prompted and ask for Ivy. You may have to leave a message but she will call you back. Ivy is the head of angler information and fish-able waters for Southern Nevada. If you need Hunting information ask for Doug. He is in charge of the Southern Region Headquarters as well as the NDOW PR contact (he's the guy you always see on the news any time there is wildlife story - like the coyotes in Anthem last week).

Lake Mead fish hatchery stocking: 702 486-6738
You will get a recording. Sometimes there is no recorded message for the week and it goes to general voice mail. Usually there is a recording from a guy who seems none to thrilled to have to leave these messages, but at least you get an up to date fish stocking report.

People still fish that place. There are videos on you tube of dudes fishing there. It's probably like an aquarium. I would not be surprised to see giant tropical fish in there.

I fished a tournament with a guy that swares by a frog at times on mead. He pushes up into feeder creeks and fishes shallow, and I mean shallow. He didn't catch one with me, although he did have a blow up. The popper still out fished em. [laugh] Same guy says he slays with the frog on lake havasu. Who knows. I imagine you could go find a striper boil and catch yourself a frogfish.[]

Frogs can also be good on Mead mid/end summer in coves that are overgrown with vegetation.
