Hello everyone!
I finally signed up after lurking for quite awhile. All of the info I found on these forums and specifically this Nevada forum has really helped me make the jump to get on the water. I normally fish small waters in southern Utah but all the talk about bass fishing at Lake Mead finally got to me. I work with a very strict budget for my fun stuff, so everything I have was purchased used and with Christmas gift cards. I decided on a kayak fishing platform as it'll let me get off the shore a bit (pics below). Last Wednesday was the first time I've ever attempted to fish Lake Mead. I paddled around government wash and tried just beyond the tires at Callville. No luck but I can't wait to try again this coming Wednesday after gaining some more knowledge on the sport. Once again thank you everyone and thanks to BFT for existing. I've found a new hobby that I'm already in love with. Any tips, tricks, or criticisms for a new guy I'm all ears. Hope to see you all out there.
-A.J.
