あらすじ・解説
For those planning to hit Lake Mead today, here’s what you can expect:
### Weather and Tidal Conditions
As of October 27, 2024, the weather at Lake Mead is forecasted to be partly cloudy with temperatures ranging from the mid-60s to the mid-70s. Sunrise is at around 6:30 AM, and sunset will be at about 5:00 PM. The water levels are relatively stable, but be cautious of any new islands or near-surface rocks due to the fluctuating water levels.
### Fish Activity
Stripers are active around dawn and dusk, providing lively action during the cooler hours of the day. Black bass fishing, although slower, can still yield some success, especially around Las Vegas Bay using topwater poppers and Chatterbaits. Catfish and carp are also biting well, particularly in the late afternoon near Hemenway, where anchovies and corn are the baits of choice.
### Recent Catches
Yesterday saw a decent number of stripers caught, especially during the early morning and evening hours. Anglers reported catching stripers up to 5 pounds using anchovies and swimbaits in the Vegas Wash area. Black bass catches were less frequent but still manageable, with some anglers reporting success with hard plastics in shad patterns and topwater lures.
### Best Lures and Bait
For stripers, cut anchovies and jerk baits that resemble shad are working well. Hard plastics in shad patterns are also drawing strikes, especially when thrown to a boil. For black bass, topwater poppers, Chatterbaits, and soft plastics are recommended. If you're after catfish and carp, anchovies and corn are the way to go.
### Hot Spots
- **Vegas Wash Area**: This spot has been productive for boating anglers targeting stripers.
- **Hemenway**: A good spot for catfish and carp, especially in the late afternoon.
- **Las Vegas Bay**: Persistent anglers have found some success here for black bass using topwater poppers and Chatterbaits.
Remember to move around a lot and adjust your lures according to the time of day and water conditions. With the right strategy and patience, you should have a rewarding day on the water at Lake Mead.
