Sugar Pine Point - Lake Tahoe Fishing
Sugar Pine Point State Park is a forested promontory on the western side of Lake Tahoe.  Deep-line fisherman can try their luck along Lake Tahoe’s 300-foot-deep underwater ledges by trolling for lake trout (Mackinaw) and kokanee Salmon.  Top-lining (trolling near the surface) for rainbows is also popular.  Shore fishing does not tend to be productive, though the lake’s tributaries can be.  Be aware that these streams have a very short open season from July 1 through September 30.  Be sure to observe rules and regulations designed to prevent over fishing.  Contact Lake Tahoe Basin Management Unit Office (530) 573-2600.  Also check out the California Department of Fish and Game.
