Tahoe Trip anyone?

I am aching to go and get some macks.  Should be the perfect time for them in April with nice weather (probably!).

Who else wants to join in?  Tahoe Fish n Chill?

I would really love to do this. April is gonna be really busy but we'll try.

monday?

How are you getting to the macks, are you using downriggers? I would love to go.

i was thinking minnow trap + jigging for them.  april is pretty busy for me too but I would want to at least go up a day or two.

maybe the 18th weekend?  i dont know if im free then.

I know at sly park the maks come within the top 5 feet of the surface to feed in the winter, but i thought that they usually stayed 100+ feet at Tahoe

I'd love to go for a day trip.

I'll check the books and see if I'm free.



S.

18th weekend is out for me.  going to have to find a different weekend. I can make it easter weekend but I think that tahoe will be a zoo that weekend?

Was just there today. Beautiful! Got a foot of snow last night. Took 7 hours to get home because of snow.

Naturally living in Truckee I am up for a trip at anytime!.....except for the week of Easter.....Palm Springs .  

You can either jig or troll with banana weights.   However, come April, toplining should be a good option

Don't cut Donner to short either, some of the largest macks in the area come out of the lake.  

Jeffrm20:  The snow was great!  Although, it is now almost 7 PM and a significant amount has already started to melt due to the temperature and water content.  Should be melted out by mid week as the weather is calling for daytime temps in the 50's.  We should see, spring is almost here.
