[font "Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"][size 3]Boaters continued to experience fairly good success for striped bass while shore anglers were still having difficulty landing fish.[/size][/font]
[font "Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"][size 3]Nevada Department of Wildlife (NDOW) creel census clerks said that boaters fishing the Overton Beach area were successful landing striped bass that ranged from 16 – 18 inches. The fish were taken near Stewarts Point with anchovies and plastic worms.
Anglers fishing near St. Thomas reported good success for largemouth bass that ranged from 2 ½ - 3 pounds. The fish were taken with top-water lures.[/size][/font]
[font "Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"][size 3]Boaters fishing close to the islands in Echo Bay reported good success for largemouth bass that averaged 2 ½ pounds. Anglers said that they also caught and released smallmouth bass that ranged from 12 – 14 inches. Stripers that averaged 16 inches and hand-size blue gill were also taken. The fish were taken with anchovies and black plastic worms. [/size][/font]
[font "Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"][size 3]NDOW continued to get reports of boating activity concentrated about 200 yards south of Special Events Beach, which could indicate a school of stripers in the area. Small stripers were also seen feeding on numerous schools of threadfin shad at Horsepower Cove.[/size][/font]
[font "Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"][size 3]Shore anglers experienced some success for striped bass near the causeway at Lake Mead Marina.
