Today, expect a crisp autumn morning with a high of around 58°F and a low of 43°F. Sunrise is at 6:57 AM, and sunset will be at 6:33 PM. The weather is mostly clear, making it an ideal day to be out on the water.
### Fish Activity
Fish activity has been steady, particularly for those targeting Mackinaw and Kokanee Salmon. Yesterday, anglers reported catching several Mackinaw, with some weighing up to 20 pounds. The Kokanee Salmon bite, although slowing down, still yielded some catches, especially in the deeper waters around 50 to 75 feet down.
### Types of Fish
The primary catches in Lake Tahoe include Mackinaw Trout, German Browns, Rainbow Trout, and Kokanee Salmon. Mackinaw remain the dominant species, with recent reports of significant catches.
### Best Lures and Bait
For targeting Mackinaw, using wedding rings behind a Tahoe Trolling Flasher has been highly effective. For Kokanee, try using smaller lures and bait that mimic their natural food sources. Shore anglers can also use power bait and worms to catch Rainbow Trout.
### Hot Spots
One of the hot spots right now is the deep waters around Logan Shoals, where Mackinaw are actively biting. Another good spot is near the Tahoe City area, where the Kokanee Salmon are still present in decent numbers.
### Stocking Updates
Recent stocking updates show that Rainbow Trout were stocked in late July and early August, which has helped maintain a healthy fish population in the lake.
Overall, it's a great time to be out on Lake Tahoe, with plenty of fish to be caught and beautiful autumn scenery to enjoy. Make sure to check the local regulations and enjoy your time on the water.
