FISHING
 

Lake Tahoe's popular Alpine waters provide an angling for both beginners and experienced freshwater anglers.

Within the 75-mile radius of Lake Tahoe there are more than 450 lakes, reservoirs, rivers and streams. Many of the lakes in the high country are stocked regularly by public agencies.

There are at least eight varieties of trout: mackinaws (lake trout), rainbows, German brown trout, golden trout, cutthroat trout, brook trout, paiute trout and camloop trout. Add in prized kokanee salmon, smallmouth and largemouth bass, catfish, perch, mountain whitefish and other species.

Whatever your choice, fly fishing or sportfishing, you will probably want to do some research about guides and charter services before you arrive in Lake Tahoe. We've provided some experienced and reputable companies for you to contact. These trained, licensed and insured guides are knowledgeable and helpful. Each of the companies offers its own complement of services. We've also included books authored by local expert anglers! Select fly fishing or sportfishing on the menu on this page.

Keep in mind that fishing regulations and license fees vary between California and Nevada. It's best to decide where you will be fishing and then determine if the license jurisdiction is California, Nevada, California/Nevada, a specific season or year-round, one rod or two rods, size requirements and limits . . . or you can just ask your guide!
