Lake Mead Fishing Report - December 2, 2025

# Lake Mead Fishing Report - December 2, 2025

Well folks, it's Artificial Lure here with your daily Lake Mead report. Let me break down what you need to know to make today count on the water.

**Conditions Today**

Lake Mead is sitting at 31% capacity right now, holding steady from last month. We're looking at cool desert conditions this December, which means winter fishing is officially in swing. Sunrise hits around the typical early morning window, and you'll want to be off the water well before sunset. The desert days are short this time of year, so get out there early.

**Fish Activity & Recent Catches**

Here's the good news—stripers and largemouth bass are actively feeding in December. Lake Mead and Lake Mohave are heating up right now. We've been seeing solid action, especially in the deeper channels and around the coves. Rainbow trout are also in the mix. Don't sleep on the Echo Bay area up on the Overton Arm—that's been producing some consistent action lately.

**Best Lures & Bait**

For this time of year, I'm throwing artificial lures that mimic natural forage. Swimbaits work excellent when the water temps drop like this. Crankbaits and jigs are money in winter conditions. If you're going traditional, live baitfish will always put fish in the boat. The bite times favor early morning and late afternoon—that's when the major feeding windows open up.

**Hot Spots**

Lake Mead Marina area is always solid. For something different, try Las Vegas Bay where the shallow water and clear conditions make for good sight-fishing during twilight. The points on either side of beaches often hold structure where bass bunch up in winter.

**Water Supply Note**

Keep in mind Lake Mead sits two feet lower than last year. That changes some shallow water access, so adjust your spots accordingly.
