As Lake Mead drops below shortage mark, shifting shorelines keep marinas in motion Ian James, Arizona Republic
LAKE MEAD, Nevada People who fish for striped bass and catfish in Lake Mead are seeing their favorite stretches of shoreline transform around them.
The reservoir near Las Vegas has been dropping week after week, reshaping the moist, sandy ground where anglers cast their lines into the lapping water.

On a flat-bottomed boat Paula Sheridan and Swade Finch, owners of Ōkārito Eco Boat tours, slide through watery channels shrouded by rainforest beneath the rumpled outline of Aoraki Mt Cook and Mt Tasman. A lone kōtuku gazes through its reflection in search of food, one of a resident population of about eight to 10 that stay here year round.
