Book your next trip with Premier Sportfishing and find out what the fishing in South Lake Tahoe is all about.

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 trolling, jigging, and mooching.

Your adventure begins aboard a 35' Seahawk sportfishing vessel with space for 8 to 10 passengers. It has outriggers, downriggers, all the essentials. There's a toilet on board for your convenience. Rods, reels, and tackle are ready for you, as well as lures. Live bait is available, but it's good to ask about this so you know if you'll be catching it yourself.

All trips are Captained and for groups of 5 or more will have a First Mate on board to help the Captain with making your trip run smoothly. It's customary to tip the crew 15–20% to show your appreciation.

You will need to get a local fishing license before the trip of which both a CA or NV license will work on Lake Tahoe and we sell day licenses at our our office.

You can't go wrong when you bring sunglasses, sunscreen (non-spray). We provide water and coffee in the morning and water on the afternoon trips but you are welcome to bring food and other beverages on board with you. Just no Bananas.

Great time with the bachelor party!
4 HOUR PRIVATE APR/MAY 1PM on April 25, 20269 adults

We had eight guys out on the boat, most of whom knew very little about fishing. Our crew were incredibly helpful and taught us exactly what we needed to do. The boat was plenty big to hold all of us and we were able to catch fish on a beautiful day. When we were finished, our crew cleaned and filleted our trout like pros and we walked away happy!

Reported catch:
Lake Trout
Response from Captain

Love hearing this—eight guys, good weather, and fish in the boat is hard to beat. Glad the crew could walk everyone through it and keep things fun, even for the first-timers. Nothing beats wrapping up the trip with fresh trout cleaned and ready to go. Sounds like a solid day all around. Appreciate you coming out—hope we get you all back on the water again soon!

Great Day out on the Lake!
4 HOUR PRIVATE NOV/MAR 12:30 on March 21, 20265 adults

We caught 4 big Lake Trout and an unusually large Brown Trout and we had a blast doing it. We released the Brown and ate the Lake Trout. SO delicious! Thanks Captain Sammy and First Mate Riley!

Reported catch:
Lake Trout
Response from Captain

Thank you so much for the 5 stars! That sounds like such a fun and memorable day—nothing beats reeling in some big Lake Trout and enjoying them fresh after! Love that you released that Brown too, what a catch. We’ll definitely pass your kind words along to Captain Sammy and Riley. Can’t wait to have you back out with us again soon! 🎣

Great day fishing
4 HOUR PRIVATE SEP/OCT 1PM on September 12, 20252 adults

Had a really good time. The captain and captains crew did a really good job making sure that everyone was aware when they had fish on and showed us how to use the fishing gear. As well as taking care of a fish after we were done catching our limit and I would suggest anyone who wants to have a good time catching fish to give it a try.

Reported catch:
Salmon
Response from Captain

Thank you for your kind words! We're delighted to hear you enjoyed your experience with us. As a family business, we love creating lasting memories for our guests, and your feedback is incredibly valuable. We look forward to welcoming you back soon!
