Good video. That is really a jewel of the Sierra's, and probably an under rated fishery.

Im heading up to Almanor this coming weekend and have never fished it before. Any advise on some good spots to fish off of the shore?

THANKS!

Cool Vid, Nice Brown too. Thanks for explaining the tag end and I heard ya say crickets right? May spend a day up there first week of September. Fish on!

[neversat]

Crickets work well, as do nightcrawlers, but try meal worms too! You can buy them from the hardware store in Chester.

Pro guide Doug "Almanor King" Neal reported on Saturday that rainbows are stacked "like cord wood" in the Hamilton Branch, the largest inlet to Lake Almanor. Shore access to the branch is good.
