Welcome to the Lakeview Lodge the Gateway to Yosemite

Fishing

Lee Vining Creek — Lee Vining Creek is high & clear, occasionally stocked with rainbow trout up to 4 lbs. Turn on Hwy 120 west, follow it a couple of miles almost to the gate where they close the road for the winter. Off to your right, you will be able to see water tanks. There is a road on the right, turn and follow it a short distance to a small reservoir. There you will find great fishing, excellent for beginners or small children.

Lundy Reservoir — Turn on Hwy 167 west, drive past Lundy Lake Campground to either the dam on the east side of the lake or the boat launch on the west side of the lake. Whether from a boat, float tub or from shore, this is a great lake for browns and rainbows. Try some of the beaver ponds above and below the reservoir for great fishing.

Parker Lake — Turn off Hwy 395 onto the June Lake Loop (Hwy 158) at the north junction. After a mile and a half, turn right onto a dirt road. There will be a sign for Parker Lake. Follow the signs to the Parker Lake Trailhead. This 4-mile round trip, moderate trail takes you to a beautiful mountain lake with a great view and excellent fishing. Hike up a steep trail with spectacular views of Mono Lake, follow the trail up to the part where the trail flattens out next to beautiful Parker Creek, as it meanders through green meadows. Try you luck here or continue through the forest straight ahead to Parker Lake. Record-size browns have been pulled out of this lake, as well as big brookies. Try a black ant fly or a worm with a weight and a bubble.

Ellery Lake and Tioga Lake — On the Tioga Pass. This lake has been stocked with rainbow trout up to 5 pounds. A beautiful, scenic lake, with easy access, a great place for families, or a quick fishing stop when heading into the park. There are over 50 fishable lakes in the Tioga Pass Region.

Saddlebag Lake — On the Tioga Pass, two miles of dirt road off 120 near the Tioga Pass Resort. This lake and the 20 Lakes Basin at the far end of Saddlebag offer a variety of trout for avid anglers. Here you can catch Brook, Brown, Golden and Rainbow trout. At 10,000+, this is one of the highest elevations in the U.S. that you can actually drive to for camping, hiking and fishing. It is very beautiful and a wonderful place for families.

Fishing season generally runs from the last Saturday of April to November 15. Fishing licenses can be purchased at Bell's Sporting Goods.
