Welcome! I actually live in the same part of town! And anywhere near Lake Mead is a haul for us in the northwest part of town...almost doesn't matter where it is.
I have not myself fished for them, but I have heard the crappie fishing is good in the Overton arm of the lake, especially Echo Bay and Stewart's Point. Winter seems like the best time, but I'm sure you can find them all year.
You can shore fish from just about anywhere for whatever you're looking for, stripers, LMB, carp, cats. Just depends on how far you are willing to hike sometimes. For stripers, start with Boulder Harbor, Boulder Beach, Hemenway Harbor, and Hole 33. Cats are decent at Hole 33 also.
I mostly fish for carp, so I know a few good areas for them as well. As a general rule, if you stick nearby any of the marinas (can't fish inside the marinas so stay outside the tires) you'll knock out a few carp. And they'll give you a good fight, even the smaller ones. In fact, I've wanted to get up around Echo Bay to see what the carping is like up there...it's on the list of stuff to do...
If you need anything else, let me know! Hey, PM me, I have a question for you.
