  • Lake Tahoe Fishing Report: Macks, Kokanee, and Hatches Abound for Memorial Day Weekend

    Lake Tahoe Fishing Report: Macks, Kokanee, and Hatches Abound for Memorial Day Weekend
    May 25 2025
    Good morning anglers, Artificial Lure here with your Sunday, May 25, 2025, Lake Tahoe fishing report.

    The morning kicked off crisp and calm with sunrise hitting just after 5:34 am and a gentle breeze over glass-clear water. Lake conditions are some of the best we have seen in years, with clarity reaching deep due to a stellar winter runoff. Surface temps are holding steady in the low 50s, putting both trout and Mackinaw on the move and feeding[2][5].

    Tides do not impact Lake Tahoe since it’s a freshwater lake, but the spring runoff is at its peak. Flows into and out of the Truckee River are up, giving those fishing the river arms plenty of moving water. Water stays cleaner early before picking up a hint of color in the afternoon[2].

    The action this week has been red hot for Mackinaw. Just a couple days ago, Diana landed two hefty macks, one at 20 pounds and another going 25, marking some of the biggest fish seen so far this spring. Multiple double-digit lake trout were reported aboard Tahoe Trophy as well, so there’s no shortage of big fish moving[3]. Kokanee action is picking up too, with schools showing up in deeper pockets as the mornings warm[1].

    Trout, especially browns and rainbows, are becoming more aggressive with the rising water temps. They’re holding mostly at depth in the mornings before sliding shallower to feed as insect hatches pick up[2]. Blue Winged Olives and March Browns are showing in numbers, and Pale Morning Duns should pop any day, so the bite should only get better[2][4].

    For tackle, deep jigging with white or chartreuse tubes or swimbaits is producing big macks. Trolling spoons like Needlefish and Dodgers with a pink hoochie is a top bet for kokanee. Trout are hitting olive and black streamers early and late, with nymphs (size 14-18, heavy anchor flies) working well in the river mouths and drop-offs. For bait, live minnows and nightcrawlers are the ticket if you’re going natural[2][3].

    Hot spots today include the Tahoe City drop-off for Mackinaw and the mouth of the Truckee River for hungry browns and cutthroats. The south shore around Camp Richardson is also turning up limits of kokanee and the occasional big rainbow.

    Weather should be fair all day, with highs in the upper 60s and light afternoon breezes. Sunset wraps up about 8:18 pm, and evening action on topwater plugs for trout should be strong right after[5].

    In summary, Lake Tahoe is fishing as good as it gets right now. Bring heavy gear for the macks, and don’t forget your bug spray for the big evening hatches. Tight lines, and see you on the water!

  • Excellent Tahoe Fishing Report: Macks Biting Deep, Rainbows & Browns Active on the Edges

    Excellent Tahoe Fishing Report: Macks Biting Deep, Rainbows & Browns Active on the Edges
    May 24 2025
    Good morning, anglers, this is Artificial Lure with your Saturday, May 24, 2025, Lake Tahoe fishing report. Sunrise hit just after 5:35 a.m., with sunset expected around 8:14 p.m., giving you a long window to get out and chase some fish. No tides here in Tahoe, but lake levels are running high, thanks to a third straight year of big snowpack and active spring runoff. Water clarity is outstanding—locals are saying it’s the best they’ve seen in decades, with surface temps holding in the low to mid 50s, just right for late-spring action[5][3].

    This week, the bite has been red hot. Mackinaw are stacked deep and hungry, hanging out 80 to 120 feet down. Most boats are doing damage with white or chartreuse tube jigs, best tipped with a sliver of sucker meat. Drifting slowly or vertical jigging right over the drop-offs has been key. Plenty of limits have come aboard, with Mackinaw pushing 6 to 12 pounds not uncommon.

    Rainbows and browns are on the move too. They’re cruising the shallower points and drop-offs early, especially where creek water is coming in. Flatlining small Rapalas in natural colors, especially in the morning, has pulled some solid fish. Fly anglers are finding success along the east shore and where the Truckee flows in, with March Browns and Blue Winged Olives coming off in good numbers. Nymph rigs with heavier anchor flies and a long leader—think 12 to 15 feet—are the ticket for the deeper, faster seams. Olive and black streamers have been money, especially at dawn and dusk[5][3][4].

    For bait, you can’t go wrong with live crawlers or PowerBait off the bottom for rainbows near the South Shore and Tahoe Keys. For those headed to the rivers, the Truckee is running a touch high but still fishable. Fish are set up in the slower edges, tailouts, and deeper pools. Streamers or a bobber-and-nymph rig have both been productive, especially during that midday hatch window.

    Hot spots right now are the classic Tahoe City shelf and Rubicon Point for Mackinaw early, and the mouth of the Upper Truckee River and Sand Harbor for rainbows and browns. Make sure to hit those in low light or right after a big hatch for best results.

    That’s it for today—grab your gear and get out there, because conditions don’t get much better. Tight lines!

  • Tahoe Fishing Report: Macks, Kokanee, and Trout Abound in Prime Time Season

    Tahoe Fishing Report: Macks, Kokanee, and Trout Abound in Prime Time Season
    May 23 2025
    Howdy there, fellow anglers! Artificial Lure here with your Friday morning fishing report for May 23, 2025, around our beautiful Lake Tahoe!

    Let me tell ya, we're in prime time fishing season right now, folks! The spring runoff is still going strong with the Truckee flowing about 400 CFS through town and pushing up near 1000 CFS by Farad. Water's running clear in those crisp mornings but gets a touch cloudy by afternoon as things warm up.

    Water temps have settled nicely in the low to mid-50s, and that's got our finned friends more active than a kid in a candy store! The clarity is something special - locals are saying it's the best they've seen in decades. Just glass-clear conditions that make for some fantastic fishing opportunities.

    The Mackinaw bite is absolutely stellar right now. They're stacked deep and hungry, mostly hanging between 80 and 110 feet. Your best bet is either tube jigs tipped with sucker meat or deep-diving stickbaits. Southwest and north ends of the lake have been producing consistently.

    Kokanee action has been heating up something fierce! Boats are averaging about 3-5 fish per rod, though they're still sitting a bit deeper than usual for late May - look for them between 60 and 75 feet, especially where you can mark bait. Wedding rings behind dodgers are working wonders, particularly in the early morning hours when the light's low.

    For you trout enthusiasts, the rainbows and browns are starting to move out of their winter patterns and getting more aggressive. They're mainly in deeper pools, tailouts, and slower seams where they can grab an easy meal. The hatches are looking mighty fine - Blue Winged Olives in good numbers, March Browns showing up, and PMDs should be popping any day now.

    If you're hitting the Truckee or Little Truckee, definitely have that streamer rod ready, especially on these slightly overcast days we've been having. The fish are willing to chase! Anything from small leaches to 3-4 inch streamers have been doing the trick. Just remember to pause your retrieve!

    For hot spots, I'd recommend trying Emerald Bay early for some nice Mackinaw action, then shifting to Cave Rock or the dropoffs near Sugar Pine Point as the day progresses for those Kokanee. For river anglers, the stretch below Fanny Bridge has been producing some beautiful rainbows.

    May is offering some of the best fishing conditions of the year, friends - active fish, crisp mornings, and plenty of elbow room on the water since the summer crowds haven't arrived yet. Get out there while the getting's good!

    Tight lines until next time, this is Artificial Lure signing off!
