Striper fishing ready to take off on Lake Mead!

[Capt. Don Martin]

As this weather gets hotter, the striper fishing on Lake Mead out of South Cove will start getting better.

 

Last year, from May to August, we caught, according to my report to the AZGFD, 4,773 stripers and 355 channel catfish! Most of our trips we got over 100 fish!

 

Out big striper last year weighed 12 lbs. 12 oz., (Chris Favour) and I got the biggest FISH of the year, a common carp that weighed 13 lbs. 13 oz!

 

Jacob Jacoby caught a WALLEYE, while I got a crappie and another angler even got a rainbow trout. All were taken using cut up anchovies!

 

We set a new record for most fish caught in a night; with over 250 in one night, then over 300 the next! Shelley Favour set a record for the most fish ever caught by a lady angler on our boat with 67 fish!

 

Thinking it will be another good year and have done some fun pre-fishing with friends and have caught fish and will be ready to open the doors around June 1.

 

If you want to go on a fun fish CATCHING trip, think about going with us.

 

You won't catch big fish, the average is just over a pound, but you'll catch a lot of them, and they are great eating!

 

Call for details, I'm already booked up for all the weekends in June and July, but have some week days open. Also got plenty of dates in August.

 

So keep your lines fresh and we'll see you on the water!

Looks fun. Does Meade have other cats?

[Capt. Don Martin]

There are some yellow bullheads in there, but no flatheads.. Channel cats are the number one cat in Lake Mead.

 

We caught 55 fish Friday night/Saturday morning. 33 stripers and 22 channel cats.

 

I got 16 cats and 13 stripers!

 

Heck of a mess of fish!
