Largemouth Bass
Lake Mead, near Boulder City, offers diverse largemouth bass fishing opportunities. The largemouth population benefits from the lake's varied habitat, ranging from shallow coves to deep, rocky structure. Spring is an excellent time to target spawning bass in the backs of coves and around submerged vegetation. As the water warms into summer, focus on deeper structure using Texas-rigged worms, jigs, and crankbaits. Fall can be another productive period as the bass feed heavily before winter. A key to success on Lake Mead is understanding the thermocline, as largemouth will often congregate just above it. Las Vegas Bay is a popular area with good access and plenty of submerged structure. Be aware of the intense summer heat and bring plenty of water. Additionally, check Nevada Department of Wildlife regulations for any specific Lake Mead rules.
