10 Gift & Specialty Shops in Lake Tahoe (California) That You Shouldn't Miss

March 25, 2022 Rosalyn Ihle

Basking in its 300 days of sunshine, Lake Tahoe is a haven for outdoor fun in every season. Swimming, kayaking and windsurfing are popular in the summer months, while epic snowfall makes for spectacular skiing in winter. For those who prefer indoor fun, there's plenty of that in Tahoe, too. With 24-hour casinos and a flashy nightlife scene, the area has a tangible Vegas vibe. A sprinkle of bling, if you will. Not surprising, since Lake Tahoe straddles the border between California and Nevada.

Tahoe Fly Fishing Outfitters

Reviewed By trueblue2usa - Fallbrook, United States

My friend and I wanted to fish for trout while visiting S Lake Tahoe with our wives. I am a fly fishing wanna be while my friend is well versed. We visited the outfitters and asked them for information on stream locations, flies or bait and best times. Not being an accomplished fly fisherman, I surveyed the store for spin casting options while another employee helped my friend select flies. I explained to one of the employees my predicament and he told me of several places where we could each use our expertise. He recommended the Little Truckee River for both types of fishing and showed me some spinners and spoons that he had used to catch trout during the warm weather due to the cold water of the river. The Little Truckee is a “wild”, catch and release non-live bait stream that runs out of Stampede Res., North of I-80 East, easily reached off the Hirschdale exit N., about 2 miles east of the town of Truckee. Unlike several of the rivers we fished, we caught trout both times during the day, it was warm in 80’s. We went during the week (twice) and found no crowds and a beautiful 7 mile road adjacent to Boca Res. These 2 reservoirs have multiple parking and camping areas and no crowds. You can fish from shore or launch your boat easily if you like lake fishing for all ages. We followed the narrow road to the last parking lot just below Stampede Reservoir. We arrived one day at 1:30PM and the next Day at 9:00 AM, both equally not crowded with 4-5 cars. After flattening our bards on the hooks, we exited the southwest corner of the lot and found a good trail along the stream. The river “screams” trout with its fast water, deep holes and twisting route through low brush, lightly wooded areas which provided easy open casting. Absolutely beautiful even if you don’t catch a rainbow or brookie, however we did catch trout! We caught and released 10 fish from 8” to a monster 23” fat rainbow I caught while sitting on old fallen tree by a deep hole (east side of the stream about 1/2 mile south of the parking area, can’t miss it) I caught it on a small orange spotted spinner recommenced by the Outfitter’s employee. I also caught fish on silver and black spinners. My buddy who, was fly fishing, caught fish on very small floaters. We saw maybe 10 fishermen, along the 3-4 miles we fished. Trout were rising all along the stream and we had a blast! I cannot guarantee you will catch fish but they are there and BIG! Good fishing and we might see you there!
