Looking to go fishing in South Lake Tahoe? Then Tahoe Sportfishing has a trip with your name on it!
Mackinaw Lake Trout, Kokanee Salmon (Jul-Sep), Rainbow Trout and Brown Trout, and more inhabit these waters, depending on conditions. During the trip you might be light tackle fishing, trolling, jigging, and mooching.
Your excursion begins aboard one of our 6 boats in our fishing fleet which can carry up to 8 passengers. It comes with outriggers, downriggers, all the essentials no fishing machine can run without. There's a toilet on board for your convenience. You'll find rods, reels, and tackle waiting for you, as well as lures. Live bait is included, but you should ask the captain whether you'll be catching it yourself.
There will be a First Mate on board for groups of 5 or more to help your trip run smoothly. A 15–20% tip is customary to show your appreciation for their hard work.
Before coming aboard, it will be necessary to have a CA or NV fishing license for everyone in your group. You can purchase a CA day or an annual license at our fishing office during check in.
It's always wise to bring sunglasses, sunblock (non-spray), and a hat. We offer water on all our trips and coffee for our morning trips. You are welcome to bring any additional food and beverages but all we ask is NO BANNANA's.

Fish on !!
4 Hour Shared JUN/SEP 12PM on July 30, 2025 • 1 adult • 1 child
The way a fishing charter should be ! The crew was as salty as they come and beyond super cool! A laid back vibe, but also down to business about the fishing. The way it should be. The captain and deck hand knew their stuff and put us on the fish. There were two young boys on the trip, 11 yrs old and they had a blast! Not over crowded, and the crew was respectful and fun to be around. Everyone caught fish and had fun! Highly recommend. Capt James and his crew.

Thank you so much for the awesome review! We're glad to hear you enjoyed the trip and that the crew’s style hit the mark — laid-back but serious about the fishing. It’s great to know the kids had a blast too, and we really appreciate you pointing out the atmosphere and attention from Capt. James and Channing. We’d be happy to have you aboard again anytime!

Great time on the lake
4 Hour Shared SEP/OCT 1PM on September 20, 2025 • 5 adults
Our captain, Anthony, was friendly and accommodating. This was a family trip with three generations attending. The crew was extremely helpful to my elderly father, and generous with the family members who weren't experienced fisher-people. We caught many fish, a little smaller than we were hoping for, but my guess is most people say that about any fishing trip. I definitely recommend this trip for anyone looking for an enjoyable time on Lake Tahoe.

Captain James and Channing were Awesome!
Went out with my Family watching the sunrise on the lake hoping to catch some fish. Beautiful morning!
James and Channing were great! They made us feel welcome, comfortable and best of all were a lot of fun! In no time at all, we started catching fish and were at it the whole trip and we all caught our limit.
I would highly recommend this!

FISH ON!!!
5 Hour Shared JUN/SEP1 6AM on June 4, 2025 • 2 adults
Captain James and Channing were GREAT! While it was a bit windy and choppy they managed to keep us on the fish. There were 6 of us fishing and we were able to bring in 13 fish. They cleaned them and filleted them for us to take home. I would highly, highly suggest them! Also, please make sure to book the early morning time when the fish are biting. We saw people leaving an afternoon boat the day before and only one person caught one fish - it seems like they just stop biting in the afternoon.

Thank you so much for the fantastic review! We’re really glad to hear you had such a great time out on the water with Captain James and Channing. Windy conditions can definitely make things tricky, but it sounds like they did an excellent job keeping you on the fish and making sure everyone had a successful and enjoyable experience.
Bringing in 13 fish with a group of six is no small feat—well done! We also appreciate the tip about booking early; that morning bite really can make all the difference. Thanks again for your recommendation—we’d love to have you back for another trip soon!
