Capt. Don Martin Report post Posted June 30, 2016 As we start into the second month of striper and cat fishing on Lake Mead, thought I'd show you some photos of the results we have been having. Still got openings for July and first two weeks of August. We can accommodate from two to four anglers. Enjoy a couple of days in northwest Arizona and fill your freezer with striper and catfish filets. Capt.

IA Born Report post Posted June 30, 2016 Looks great. Out of curiosity, what's the going rate for a trip for a family of four (two adults, two kids 12 and 8)? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Capt. Don Martin Report post Posted July 1, 2016 A basic trip is $450, and this is for two adult anglers. If you have children under 18, they fish for free! No more than 4 anglers total on a trip. Four adults fish for $650 total. A typical trip goes like this. You meet at our Martin's El Campo de Pescado in Meadview between 5-6 p.m. My intern will have dinner ready, then we finish up loading the boat, getting life jackets fitted, bait in the containers, and then we head out. We fish out of South Cove on Lake Mead. We go to our fish spot, anchor up, toss out chum, and start fishing. . Cristi McReynolds with a nice Lake Mead striper! Hyatt Barrett holds his first Lake Mead striper! Then around 5 a.m. we start heading back to South Cove. Once back to the dock we load up and head back to the house in Meadview. Back at the house, we unload everything out of the boat, ice the fish down, and take a nap. When we get up, we sort, weigh and take some Grip N Grin pictures of your trip. Then it's time for me to filet your catch. Capt. Don shows a properly filet striper! You can help in ribbing the filets. Latigo Barrett shows he can handle the ribbing chores. Then we pack the filets in gallon or quart bags and you are ready to go! A gallon bag typically weighs from 7.7 lbs to 8.1 lbs. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
