Post this on www.fishsniffer.com and www.anglernet.net Both of these are
Norcal sites and some of the people fish the Tahoe area. I have not fished
Fallen Leaf, but have boated the lake. I think I have seen people fishing
from the campground area. Or you could buy my 14' Valco for $2000 and take
your son boating. There are a couple of decent sporting goods shops in
South Shore.

@newssvr25.news.prodigy.com:

My son wants to fish at Fallen Leaf Lake while we're camping there.
Neither of us has any experience with or knowledge of fishing.

I have a couple of 6 or 6.5 foot poles, some power bait and some eggs,
and a few hooks, and some weights and a bobber or two. We'll probably
be fishing from shore unless a boat is dirt cheap.

Fallen Leaf Lake has Mackinaws as it's primary self-sustaining game
fish, but also has cutthroats, and rainbows, and browns.


Any honest friendly advice for us rookies?

Thanks



I am in the same boat as you, pardon the pun. I am just getting back to
fishing.

One often overlooked resourse is the public library. You might want to
give that a try. There will surely be some book there to meet you
specific
situation, geographic requirements.
