Mohave
Lake Mohave was formed in 1953 with the completion of Davis Dam. The Lake is 67 miles long and has 44 miles of surface acres. The lake also has up to 17 feet annual vertical fluctuation and current that can get as high as 16 miles per hour. Lake Mohave is part of the Lake Mead National Recreation Area and is operated by the National Park Service. While the lake is a habitat for fish and wildlife; it also captures and delays the discharge of flash floods from side washes below Hoover Dam. Rainbow Trout are found in the cool, clear waters at the upper end of Lake Mohave, while Largemouth and Striped Bass are taken from the lower reaches of the lake. A fishing license from either Arizona or Nevada, to which a special-use stamp from the opposite state is attached, is required for those wishing to fish on Lake Mead or Lake Mohave. Facilities for public use are located at Katherine's Landing, in Arizona near Davis Dam, and at Cottonwood Cove, east of Searchlight, Nevada.
