Fishing for mackinaws near North Shore with
limits of 4 to 7 pounder hitting in only 2 to 3 hours. trolling for Brown trout near South Shore for fish running 2 to
5 pounds is also good. Use Shadow Raps and Krocodile 40
to 60 feet deep. Rapalas at 120-150 feet for Mackinaws.
How and where to find fish at Lake Tahoe
LAKE TAHOE - Lake Tahoe
is beautiful but can be intimidating to
fish, after all, this is the world’s 10th deepest
lake (1,645 feet) and sixth largest in the United States. Highly underrated, it is one of the best fishing lakes in California.
Right now in April they’re doing it to the kokanee, it is red hot.
Unlike the large Lake Trout, aka Mackinaw, these kokanee, basically landlocked salmon — are small in size, with a 16 incher considered the upper end.
Limit is five fish per
day, with pink flesh and a limit will
make a decent meal for a small
family. Summer is the best time to go after these silvery bright fish during the 80- to 90-degree days
but at this moment our fishing report found that limits are being caught within
a couple hours.
Kokanee, during the Summer, start schooling up , just like salmon
everywhere, such as in a Bay Area prior to migrating up the Sacramento River to spawn. But 200 miles from
any ocean, these mini salmon migrate up Taylor
Creek, after schooling on the west
side of the lake, around Sugar Pine. See our Fishing Map for details.
The schooling starts
in June, and as July and August near,
the kokanee schools become concentratred as they migrate to
the south end of the lake. Our
fishing report found that they first migrate
to Rubicon Point then spread out over all of the entire south end. Here is where
you should focus your efforts.
Taylor Creek, near Emerald Bay, is where they lay their eggs and die - so anglers do extremely well by trolling the south end — from Sugar Pine Point to Cave Rock and all points south. Like our Fishing Map shows, Logan
Shoals, Cave Rock, Zephyr Cove, Elks
Point, Camp Richardson, the Keys and
Rubicon Point.
Our Fishing report found that Kokanee fishing is very good
right now averaging 10 to 12 inches. Success
on the kokanee depends on the previous
year’s spawn. A good spawn in Taylor Creek
in 2014 means an excellent season
this year, and anglers are already
seeing the effects of that good
spawn.
Trolling lures in 40
to 70 feet of water, is the norm in
summer , but as shallow as 10 feet earlier in the year. Electronic fish finders
are a must early in the year because
kokanee are spread out in small schools.
Model A Ford Fenders, Red
Magic or Needlefish on Ieadcore line or
downriggers is the best setup. Mackinaw hit trolled minnows or spoons deep lined. Mackinaw angling is better at north end. We will have a fishing report on this species soon.
