TAHOE
Hefty Macks & The Occasional
Brown Trout Show At Tahoe
SOUTH LAKE TAHOE - Lake Tahoe is
providing very good fishing these days
with limits of mackinaw along with a few
very nice bonus browns being the rule.
The average size of the macks has
increased from about 3 pounds to 5
plus and the big macks are ranging up
to 8 pounds and more. If you spend
time pulling minnow plugs in shallow to
medium deep water you’ll get plenty of
macks, while having a shot at browns that
are going as much as 7 pounds.
Limits of macks have been the rule for
anglers fishing with the Tahoe Sportfishing
team.
Minnows and blades have been the hot
offering on Tahoe Sportfishing boats as is
often the case, but they’ve been mixing in
some lures too.
The Tahoe kokanee bite has yet to kick
in, but should be getting started soon.
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 you’ll be able to relax
and fight fish!
With some of the most exciting fishing of
the year busting loose on Tahoe, give the
folks at Tahoe Sportfishing a call now to
secure your spot (530) 541-5448 or check
