Battered and fried over a campfire, roasted whole on sticks, baked in hobo packets on hot coals—no matter how it’s fixed, freshly caught fish can be the highlight of a meal enjoyed after a day of successful fishing, that is, if the catch is properly cared for before cooking.
Lakes in California
|
Jump into the cool, refreshing lakes of California! California has many lakes worth visiting - over 3,000 fishing lakes alone! One of the best? Bass Lake. Set in the foothills of the Sierra Nevada, it has beautiful lakeside resorts nearby, as well as picnicking, boating, water skiing, swimming, fishing and more. It's well worth the short drive from Fresno. Another go- to California water spot? Clear Lake. At 43,000 acres, it's the largest freshwater lake in the state. Although set amid rolling, tree-covered hills approximately two hours outside the San Francisco Bay area, Clear Lake is not remote by any means, thanks to nearby resorts, museums, wineries and other entertainment opportunities. And if you're looking for a unique lake experience, there's California's Mono Lake, one of the oldest crater lakes in North America. Lake enthusiasts will find lots to love in California! |
