Fishing near Overton, NV

Overton sits in Clark County in the Moapa Valley of southern Nevada, close to two notable fisheries: the Overton Arm of Lake Mead and the Muddy River. The Overton Arm, part of Lake Mead National Recreation Area, draws warmwater anglers year-round, while the Muddy River — a 70-mile tributary of the Virgin River flowing through the valley — provides a more challenging, wade-style experience in a desert riparian setting.
