Located in Northern California, scenic New Bullards Bar Reservoir offers some of the best fishing in the state.

The reservoir is home to many species of fish including Kokanee Salmon, largemouth, smallmouth and spotted bass, crappie and blue gill.

You can stock up with all the gear you need at the Emerald Cove General Store and spend some quality time pursuing your favorite hobby.

If you are travelling with the family you could consider hiring a houseboat – the ideal family adventure. Fishing for Kokanee Salmon is especially good during fall and the experts advise that powerbait and nightcrawlers are the bait of choice.
