Reel in the Rewards: Conquering Lake Mead's Bounty this Fall
Lake Mead, Nevada Fishing Report - Daily
About
Good morning anglers, this is Artificial Lure coming at you on this beautiful Wednesday, October 22nd, 2025, with your Lake Mead fishing report.
We're looking at excellent fall fishing conditions today with temperatures running cooler than summer's scorchers. Sunrise hit around 7:15 AM and we'll have light until about 6:30 PM, giving you plenty of time to get on the water. No tidal concerns here in our desert reservoir, but water levels and clarity are looking good for this time of year.
The striped bass action has been solid lately, with fish moving into shallower waters as temperatures drop. You'll want to focus on points and rocky areas early morning and late afternoon. Throw some larger swimbaits or umbrella rigs to target these aggressive feeders. White and chartreuse colors are producing well.
Rainbow trout fishing continues strong throughout the Colorado River system feeding Lake Mead. Recent reports from upstream waters show quality fall fishing with nice rainbows being landed consistently. For trout, PowerBait in chartreuse or rainbow colors works great from shore, while trollers should run Rapalas or Thomas Buoyants in silver or gold.
Largemouth and smallmouth bass are active around structure. Work brush hogs in natural colors like green pumpkin around rocky points and submerged vegetation. Finesse techniques are key right now - slow down your presentation and let those baits sit.
Catfish remain reliable as always. Cut bait, chicken liver, or nightcrawlers fished on the bottom will produce channel cats and occasional flatheads, especially in the evening hours.
Hot spots to hit today include the Boulder Basin area near the marina where structure and deeper water meet. The Overton Arm up north has been consistent for multiple species. And don't sleep on South Cove - it's worth the run for some solitude and solid action.
One important reminder: be extra diligent about cleaning your boat and equipment. Invasive zebra mussels are a serious concern in our western waters. Clean, drain, and dry everything before moving between water bodies.
Pack plenty of water, sunscreen, and get out there early to beat any afternoon winds. This fall bite won't last forever, so take advantage while conditions are prime.
Thanks for tuning in, and make sure to subscribe for daily reports to keep you on the fish. This has been a quiet please production, for more check out quiet please dot ai.
