After speaking with the DFG it is legal to fish with an Alabama Rig with multiple wire arms and as many flashers and or teasers as you like, but only 2 of those teasers may have hooks on them. Also those 2 hooked teasers can have upto 3 hooks on each.

Everyone is required to obtain a AIS sticker prior to operating a boat on Lake Mead waters. You may get those by calling either number listed above for Nevada or Arizona departments. You can call to purchase the sticker at 866-703-4605
