    I love Lake Mead Striper Fishing!

    Half Day - Lake Mead (Most Popular) on January 6, 2026 • 1 adult

    Captain Noah did a sensational job on my first visit to Lake Mead! I learned a ton about the Lake, we ran into a TV news reporter, I learned and used Garmin Live Scoping for the first time, and most importantly in December we ran into a huge school of Striper Bass preying on a huge school of Shad that started hitting our Rapala’s almost every cast! No boil required! And as the Stripers are invasive and plentiful no size, weight, or length requirements! Viva Las Vegas! I love Lake Mead! Just go book your charter with Captain N, now! - Doug (Twist of Fate Podcast)

    Fishing with Noah

    Half Day - Lake Mead (Most Popular) on April 27, 2026

    We had a great day for fishing. We caught some fish and Noah shared a lot of good fishing techniques as well as educating me on the workings of his fish finding equipment, which I really appreciated. Our 4+ hours fishing went by quickly due to good fishing and good conversation. I would definitely do it again! Kevin

    A GREAT DAY

    Half Day - Lake Mead (Most Popular) on December 29, 2025

    Captain Noah is friendly, very professional, and very informed about Lake Mead. My sister and I are completely novice fishermen and our goal was a fun day of adventure on the water. Noah showed us some parts of Lake Mead many people never see, and many locals may not even know about. We each caught a smallmouth bass and learned something about the art of fishing. It was a great day and I will be recommending this trip to all friends visiting Las Vegas.

    Great day on the water with Noah! I asked to target smallmouth and we were on them by the second cast! Managed to hit a few other species along with some amazing views of the lake! Highly recommend this trip!

    Our fishing trip with Noah was perfect from beginning to end. Noah responded to our questions quickly and was very friendly and helpful. He was awesome with my 12 year nephew, answering all his questions with patience and it was evident he genuinely loved fishing. We also really liked his stance on the conservation of the lake and surrounding environment. If I could give him 10 stars I would.

    Bass fishing with Captain Noah

    Half Day - Lake Mead (Most Popular) on March 4, 2025

    Awesome day out with captain Noah he was cool and relaxed, very knowledgeable about lake mead and how the fish behave at certain times of the year the boat is impressive and to be honest catching fish or not it was an experience in itself cruising on a Bass boat powered by a 250h V8, probably going to go back next year do it again with Cap Noah 🤙🏾❤️👌

    Great experience fishing with Captain Noah. We caught plenty of fish and had a great time. His boat is nice and best of all he knows where all the fish are hanging out at. Also it was super fun seeing the Hoover Dam from the water. Additionally we saw big horn sheep up on the shore in a cove we were fishing in.

Hi Katy, thank you for the excellent review! I had a great time taking Kevin out on Lake Mead and teaching him all about forward-facing sonar. It was so cool to watch him catch multiple fishing using these new learned skills! Hope you guys have a great rest of your trip, and safe travels back to Michigan. Best, Noah
