Fishing Guides in Las Vegas

2 listings · ranked by rating & reviews · updated 2026

Fishing guides are the specialists - independent pros and outfitters who focus on a specific fishery and style, from bass on a local lake to fly fishing a trout river or wading the flats. Where a charter is usually about the boat and the trip, a guide sells expertise and hands-on coaching, and typically runs a smaller, more personal operation. Day rates commonly fall around $300-600 depending on the water, target species and whether the trip is walk-and-wade or from a boat, often for one or two anglers. Many guides provide rods, flies or tackle and hold the required licensing - always ask what is included. Compare a few, read the reviews, and confirm trip details, pricing and availability directly with the guide.

Who has the best-rated fishing guides in Las Vegas? +

How much does a fishing guide cost? +
Guided trips commonly run about $300-600 for the day, with the price shaped by the fishery, target species, trip length and whether it is walk-and-wade or from a boat. Rates are usually for one or two anglers. Confirm current pricing, what is included and availability directly with the guide.
What is the difference between a guide and a charter? +
A charter generally centers on a captained boat and a set trip, often for larger groups, while a guide sells focused expertise in a specific fishery and style - bass, fly fishing, flats - typically for one or two anglers and sometimes on foot. The right fit depends on the water you want to fish and how hands-on you want the coaching.
How do I choose a fishing guide? +
Compare Google ratings and reviews, check that the guide specializes in the species and water you are after, and ask what gear is provided and what you bring. Reviews that name the guide and describe the coaching are a strong signal. Then confirm trip details, pricing and availability directly with the guide.
How much does a fishing guide cost in Las Vegas? +
A guided trip on Lake Mead or Lake Mohave typically runs $350-$600. A half-day trip sits at the lower end and a full day higher, with the rate covering the boat for one or two anglers rather than charged per person. Bait and tackle are often included. Confirm the total price and what is provided with the guide when booking.
What fish can you catch near Las Vegas? +
Lake Mead and Lake Mohave hold striped bass, largemouth bass and catfish, with stripers the main draw - from schooling fish to trophy-class specimens. The cold Colorado River below Hoover Dam also holds trout for a different style of trip.
When is striped bass fishing best near Las Vegas? +
Stripers can be caught year-round, but spring and fall often produce the most exciting surface action as schools chase shad and boil on top. Summer fishing is strong early and late in the day, and winter fish hold deeper where electronics help locate them.
Do I need a license to fish Lake Mead or Lake Mohave? +
Yes. Because these waters straddle the Nevada-Arizona border, license requirements depend on where you fish, and a guide will advise which state license or reciprocal endorsement you need. Guides typically supply the boat, bait and tackle for the trip.
