Whether they come for the fish or the splash, Clear Lake is a haven forboating enthusiasts. The largest natural freshwater lake in California, ClearLake’s shores are lined with boat launches—most are free to the public. Frompaddle to pontoon boats, wakeboards to wave runners, rentals are availableat many businesses around Clear Lake. One of the most popular places forlaunching a boat is Clear Lake State Park, which features a marina, swimbeach, fishing pier, lake side camping, hiking trails, and a visitor center.

The lake is brimming with many species of fish, including catfish, carp,crappie, and bluegill, and most notably, bass. In fact, two-thirds of the fishcaught are largemouth bass. Major national bass tournament tours make a stop here; the average tournament-winning weight can be more than 5 pounds, a weight un matched by any other lake in the nation. Clear Lakehas earned a reputation for being home to “monster bass,” and those in the know refer to Clear Lake as the “Bass Capital of the West.” Evenorganizations like U.S. Bass, Cal Bass, and Western Bass agree that ClearLake is the “number one bass lake in the nation.”

Clear Lake isn’t the only body of water in the area. Northwest of Clear Lake,fishing opportunities abound in the cold, clear waters of Blue Lakes, whichhas rainbow trout, catfish, bluegill, and black bass; no boat may exceed 5mph,making the lakes perfect for kayaks, canoes, paddleboats, or a quiet day offishing or swimming. Lake Pillsbury, nestled in the middle of the MendocinoNational Forest due north of Clear Lake and surrounded by mountains, hasblack bass, pumpkinseed sunfish, and rainbow trout; all types of boats and lakeactivities are welcome. Remote and peaceful Indian Valley Reservoir to the northeast, where boats are required to stay below 10 mph, has rainbowtrout, black bass, catfish, kokanee, and crappie. Southwest of Clear Lake, theNorth Fork of Cache Creek has rainbow trout. Due south, HighlandSprings Reservoir has catfish, black bass, crappie, and bluegill, and any boatwithout a gas-powered motor is welcome; visitors also can hike, play disc golfor horseshoes, or enjoy a picnic in the area’s oak woodland and brushy terrain.

Several businesses around Lake County offer fishing licenses and supplies, including a variety of bait and tackle. Professional fishing guidesoffer instruction year-round, as well as gear, sightseeing and hunting tours,nature photography opportunities, and more.
