Eagle Lake is without any doubt
the premier rainbow trout still water in California. The fish average 19
inches and weigh 2-3 pounds. You can expect 23 inch fish on a
daily basis with some 25 inch models to add on your trophy photo wall.
Eagle is the second largest natural body of water in the state. The
Eagle Lake species of trout are indigenous to the lake and have been
planted successfully in huge numbers all over California. Eagle has been
managed by the Cal DFG as a trophy trout fishery and has special
regulations to insure quality fishing during the season. I hold great
regard to the conscientious local guides, fisherman, business folk, and
agencies that look after this incredible resource.
Eagle Lake: Incredible as always!

Talk about
Beauties... I mean the fish you guys... The McMaster girls had back to
back doubles at Eagle...
I will be returning
to Eagle Lake & will start booking trips on 9-21-10 with the last booking
date to be October 14th. A rare slow day on Eagle is a great day on most lakes!
The same price of $525.00 per day includes
1 full day guiding on Eagle Lake for 2 people.
Lodging and all meals (including daily
lunches/sodas) will be your responsibility. Please add $100 for
an additional angler (up to three on the boats please). I will be
staying and mooring the boat in Spalding. Gear will
be provided as usual…
you will need to provide your California Fishing License.
I am really
looking forward to another great session on Eagle Lake this fall. If
you like large rainbows on the fly, Eagle is a wonderful place to fish.
Please call or email for availability soon as some dates are booked.
The Eagle Lake RV Park has all my time tested guide
patterns developed for Eagle and the Under-Cator strike indicator in
stock. There is also a good selection of larger trolling flies that
imitate the Tui-Chubs @ Eagle and have been used with good success by
famous Eagle Lake guides Ronnie Beck and Timmy Noxon. Tell the friendly
cover girls that work there I said howdy!

~ Eagle Lake RV Park ~
Tell them you are
booking with Sierra Drifters Guide Service. If you don't have your own RV
they also rent small cabins and trailers which are pretty cool. These
folks are super friendly and will take good care of you.
http://www.eaglelakeheritage.com/ ~ Heritage Land Vacation Rentals:
They have a bunch of rental properties
and are good people we have dealt with a lot over the years. Susanville
has great motels and good restaurants but you will need to drive about 45
minutes one way to get to Spalding.
High Country Inn in
Susanville seems to be the favorite amongst the return folks and they are
very well located for all your needs. (530) 257-3450. There is also a
casino/motel near Susanville and those that have stayed here love it.
Inexpensive clean rooms and very good food 24 hours a day.
