Lake Tahoe

• Resting at 6,230 feet elevation in the Sierra Mountains, Lake Tahoe is approximately 22 miles long, 12 miles wide and 72 miles around. Tahoe is famous for crystal clear waters, beautiful mackinaw and kokanee salmon. Mack attacks in a boat, and deep! 5- 10 lb macks make delicious eating and the early season is bringing in mostly 5-7 lb range. Some macks may be found in shallow water during early season but most are found at the 200 foot level.
• A guide is highly recommended if you are fishing for mackinaw for the first time.
• Toplining and shore fishing is slow overall.
