-- LAKE MEAD -- Even though fishing success has not been great, anglers are catching a few striped bass in the Overton Arm and Boulder Basin, according to the Nevada Division of Wildlife. Reports from the Stewart's Point area indicate boaters are catching stripers up to 5 pounds by trolling with lures and anchovies. Boaters are catching small stripers by trolling whole anchovies in the Muddy River area. Shad are being found near shore at Hemenway Harbor and anglers are using them for bait. Fishing has been fair in that area for stripers weighing from 1 to 3 pounds. Stripers continue to be caught at Government Wash and below the campground at Las Vegas Wash. No action has been reported at Pumphouse Cove. -- LAKE MOHAVE -- Windy weather has been keeping fishing to a minimum. The few who fished last weekend found fair success for striped bass in the narrows above Cottonwood Cove.
-- WAYNE E. KIRCH WILDLIFE MANAGEMENT AREA -- A crowd of anglers found good fishing at Haymeadow Reservoir last weekend. About 20 boats and float tubes were on the water and several anglers were fishing from the dam. Anglers reported catching rainbow trout measuring 12 to 16 inches. Wooly Bugger and scud flies have been productive, and Power Bait is the preferred bait for still fishing. -- EAGLE VALLEY RESERVOIR -- Boats cannot be launched because of ice at the launch ramp, but there is ample open water for fishing. Trout fishing has been fair from shore and float tubes. -- ECHO CANYON RESERVOIR -- Even though the lake is free of ice, there has been little fishing. Crappie reportedly have taken flies cast from float tubes. Trout fishing has been fair to good.
