I love lake mead don't get me wrong but the fee is $20 to get in now since jan 1 2016 :-( ... and thats really expensive for lake mead ... for $20 there better be better fishing or no more swimmers itch like last year. I can't just drive to lake mead on a wim and feed the giant fish at the docks... i have to plan a full outing for $20 darn it... if I have to pay $20 we are spending the day there, not just drive around and play.
I changed my rating from 3 stars to 5 stars because I bought a boat and the fishing is great. Its a whole different experience. I can't wait for summertime. I also got season passes which is way worth it.
