LAKE CAMANCHE’S AMENITIES

L
ake Tahoe is breathtak-
ingly beautiful and it’s
full of coldwater gamefish
including kokanee,
mackinaw, rainbows
and browns, but they
aren’t easy to catch.
The lake is huge
and it can be hard
to find the fish.
That’s why you
should hit the lake
with a pro guide.
The team at
Tahoe Sportfishing
has some of the
best skippers on Lake
Tahoe. The Tahoe
Sportfishing boasts a fleet
of 8 boats that range from 30
to 45 feet in length. The boats
are safe and the crews are well trained, so

ob Simms, host of the KFBK
Outdoor Show, loves to fish
for trout, bass and crappie at Lake
Camanche.
“Bank fishing can be good at
Camanche because trout follow the
shoreline,“ said Simms. “For trolling, I
like long shallow coves with stick-ups.

Both morning and afternoon trips
are available and both open load
fishing and private charters are
available.
With kokanee season
winding down, mackinaw,
rainbows and browns are
now the target on Lake
Tahoe. Fall and winter
is a great time to visit
the fishery. The pleasure
boaters are off the water
and anglers are left to enjoy
the solitude.

exciting fishing of the year
about to bust loose on Tahoe,

I troll as close as I can to the stick-ups. The
trout are feeding on the small aquatic snails
they get out off the stick-ups. If you get close
to the stick-ups, you get close to the trout.”
He also likes to troll shallow diving Rebels
and Rapalas on the surface. In addition, he
employs Needlefish, Ex-Cels and Vance’s
Slim Fins, along with orange plastic grubs
with Power Eggs in front of them.
“I’ll always try fast trolling with Ex-Cels,”
he said. “I put a small ball bearing snap
swivel about 4 feet up my line. I will catch
some of bigger fish while trolling fast.”
Simms noted that bait fishing from a
boat is an overlooked fishing method at
the reservoir. “Fish 25 to 35 feet deep with
PowerBait off the bottom – it can be best
way to catch fish at times,” he disclosed.
“Trolling with PowerBait on a size 10 treble
hook is also worth a shot.”
He also uses a boat to access good spots to
bank fish with bait, such as the points by the
dam on the north side. “If you don’t hook
any fish by noon, it doesn’t doesn’t mean
anything,” he disclosed. “Sometimes the bite
will turn on for 1-1/2 hours around 1:30 pm.”
