First
Largemouth Bass caught on Lake Mead by the Bass Riders Crew!! This bass was spawning and protecting a nest. C.J. actually caught this same fish twice. Once in the morning and once in the afternoon.

First Crappie ever caught by Brian. This fish was protecting his bed and Brian threw every lure he had in front of him till he finally hooked the little sucker.

We caught a lot of
stripers but never landed a big daddy. The biggest one we caught was almost three pounds. We did catch enough fish to keep us entertained and happy.

This big channel cat hit a plastic weedless tube that Brain threw out hoping to catch a bass. As soon as the tube hit the water, this big cat was all over it. He ended up being a great meal!!

We pulled into a cove to fish and heard these wild Burros or donkeys going crazy. We beached the boat and took after them on foot to try to get some good pictures. They were not too scared and we did get pretty close. There were over 20 Burros in the back of this cove so we officially named that place Donkey cove.

Overall, it was a successful fishing trip to Lake Mead for the B.R.A. We caught over 40 fish in just two and a half days. We caught
stripers, catfish,
largemouth bass, a
smallmouth bass, and a crappie. The weather was perfect and the day we left, the shad were starting to run.
Stripers are hitting everything from
crankbaits, rattletraps, anchovies, squid and even cut bait from carp. We anticipate this week and weekend to be really good fishing down there and encourage everyone to give it a try. As always good luck out there on the water, and make sure to send in pictures at anytime.
