Re: US Fresh Water Spearfishing Nationals

To get the $29 rate for the nearest Casino hotel (2 miles away) you have to call in the reservation desk at the below # and use the code 2164. The reservations are not limited so bring the family and friends.
This is a small simple casino that is kid friendly. So you wont get lost in it and the smoke is not too bad. Rooms are simple and clean, there is a pool ,hot tub, 3 restrauants, snacks, good movie theater, gambling, game room for kids,and it is the closest rooms to the Hoover Dam. The Dam is well worth a trip to see and they do a guided trip below the dam$$. This is also the closest rooms to the willow beach dive area that holds some of the largest fresh water stripers ever caught 77 lb. 25 minutes away, and dive from shore. Get registered for the meet before you reserve your rooms.

In the ways of humor, I too am an ametuer, but this guy is nearly on the level of genious.

I believe the Proshop on lakemead and Vanwagenon which is right next to the fiesta in henderson also rents boats. Also check on Craigslist there is a few people who rent there boats out for the day. There used to be a place in Boulder City called Ski wee rentals but not sure if they are still there.
