Heading down to Vegas at the end of the month any good tips would be greatly appreciated. I’ve heard lake mead is good for large mouth bass I would like to catch some bass.

Only thing I’ve ever heard people catching there is crabs.

I was in Vegas 2 years ago and did try lake Mead. Ended up catching some catfish there with a pickeral rig.

My advice would be to fish off one of the big rock points. In the evening right as it gets dark there were stripped bass everywhere even within a few feet of shore. You can see them swimming just under the surface sometimes. And they get pretty big too, saw some that were in the 20-30lb range but they didn't seem interested in any lures. Caught one little guy on a silver castmaster

Also at sunrise in the bays, the water was boiling with what I'm guessing were carp surface feeding, never caught what was jumping so much though.

In general I would recommend and outcrops where it's deep and right around sunrise/sunset.

Hope that helps

I think the most notable thing in lake mead was striped bass. Dont know about largemouth...
