I like coming from the Chimney Beach side because it's shorter than the Spooner Lake Route. It is really steep though. If I were on a mountain bike, which some people are, I think the Spooner Lake trailhead is more palatable. Both routes are on my hiking and backpacking playlist.
I hiked in there this year and, like you, didn't know the rules and wasn't prepared. I caught one tank and nothing else. But boy that view was worth the hike.
I am bikepacking from Incline avillage into Marlette tomorrow, overnighting at the campground above the lake. Bringing my kit for a little fishing around the lake. Thanks for the tips on gear. See you there soon!
Good vid man. Marlette can be tough. You could hike in from chimney rock side to make it a little easier on your body. Hope I can make it up there once before the season closes.
Right on man. Ian showed up in the comment section out of the woodwork! Good to hear from him. You and Jeff have been here from the beginning and I'm grateful for it.
Amazing video man. I'm a new subscriber, I'm planing on heading there I have no problem hiking but I have some heavy set friends. Can you drive up there?
You can't drive there but if they have mountain bikes they can ride. The hike is on my Backpacking and hiking playlist if you want to see what is in store for you. Glad you found my channel. I have a lot of hiking and fishing content across my channel playlists that might interest you if you haven't discovered it yet. I also have another Marlette lake clip on my alpine lakes playlist. There will be a lot more content to come. Thanks for tuning in.
@@wildernesswithamani1027 thank you brother i appreciate it. I will be looking more at you're content I'm from Reno nv so all of your spots are easily within my area keep up the awesome content!
It would be really cool if you could do Hobart Creek Reservoir, just a couple of mile northeast of Marlett. I have caught some really nice 15-16 inch tigers there. I don't know if tigers still cruise the shoreline but there are brookies, rainbows and cuts in there. You can drive within 1.5 miles if you go in from the Carson City side. Or, you can bike it from Incline Village on the famous Flume Trail.
I plan to get up there before the season ends. I read there is a problem with the brook trout population spiking but I still want to go. I never got a tiger trout before.
@@wildernesswithamani1027 I understand that when the brookie population spikes, NDOW plants it with Tigers. The Tigers are voracious fish eaters and cannot breed because they are hybrids. They are perfect fish control.
I barely know how You tube works. I mostly just watch 80's rock and alternative music on it. I have a lot of content across my channel playlists if you're interested. Other than that, I have no idea why it showed up in your feed. I guess it's how the algorithms work?
Damn always been spotting that lake but never pulled the trigger. Thanks for letting me know that there’s lots of regulations really helpful as always bro
I hit it there this past Saturday! Awesome hike in and out. I got my butt kiked though haha great stuff man! Least you caught something and got great views!
Marlette Lake is in the mountains between Spooner Lake State Park and Chimney Beach (Lake Tahoe). You can hike or bike in from either side but the hike from Spooner Lake is easier in my opinion. It's around four and a half miles. I have the hike on my hiking playlist.
@@erikaroberson877 For better or for worse, I believe swimming is allowed. A couple of people jumped in while I was up there. Regulations like 'artificial, single hook, barbless only' are typically for fishery management. Of course, I could be wrong. Wouldn't be the first time!
If you go in from Spooner Lake, it is about 4.5 miles. It is less than 4.0 miles if you leave from Chimney Beach parking on the east side of hwy 89 and take the shortcut to the dam at the fork in the trail .5 miles from the dam. This route is steeper, however. If you approach from the Carson City side on Ash Canyon Road, you can also drive to within 1.5 miles of Hobart Creek Reservoir and hike in from there. Hobart is a fun little lake to fish. A few times, I have hiked to Marlette as a point to point, from Chimney beach to Spooner Lake, leaving a car at both spots. There is also a shuttle from Spooner to Incline Village. They may drop you at Chimney on the way back. You can also bike it on North Canyon Road from Spooner.
I hiked from chimney beach this time and in my opinion, the route from Spooner lake is easier and has better scenery. Chimney was serious uphill most of the way.
Has to be single barbless up there. I guess panthers could be modified. I'm a panther Martin guy myself. I like the easy spinning blade and lead body for better casting.

Awesome video thank you for sharing. Going to have to take a hike up there someday 👍🏻

I knew the rules. Single/barbless/artificial only. I just didn't get anything very big. Not prepared? That's just about how I usually show up!
@@wildernesswithamani1027 I will be prepared when I go back. I love your videos. I'm just starting a channel. I need subscribers.

Right on. Good luck.
Good vid man. Marlette can be tough. You could hike in from chimney rock side to make it a little easier on your body. Hope I can make it up there once before the season closes.
want to get up there again to fish the other side of the lake. I at least want to scout it out to see what's cooking over there!
Congratulations on over 500,000 total views….growing channel and great fishing.
Right on man. Ian showed up in the comment section out of the woodwork! Good to hear from him. You and Jeff have been here from the beginning and I'm grateful for it.
@@wildernesswithamani1027 I gave Ian the link after he posted Sierra fishing pictures on Facebook.

@@michaelperine2780 I'm eager to check that out. I'll get there before the season ends.
Bitchen lake bud, so nice out there, I hate fishing in the wind, but we all do it anyway!! Thx for sharing, safe travels bud 👍🎣🎣
Basically, when we show up at the water's edge we play on the field that stands before us.
Thanks so much Amani for keying me into this Lake during our early August Tahoe vacation. Will do research here, did not really know about this lake.
Right on. The hike is on my hiking and backpacking play list. You are looking at 5 miles from Spooner Lake.
Lol! I’m supposed to be fishing Marlette soon! Always a step ahead of me! Love the videos bro! I only fly fish barbless.
Right on. Good luck when you go. I plan to explore the other side of the lake before the season ends.
Nice looking water. Thanks
It's a cool lake. I plan to get back up there and explore the other side of the lake.
Wow, the air quality looks amazingly good considering the fire.
I was seriously concerned I'd be gasping for air because of smoke as I was hiking in and out but it wasn't a factor.
Mepps as well.
Yeah, Mepps blades spin real easy. I like them in low flow small streams.
Funny how this came up in my feed randomly. How does TH-cam know I’m in Tahoe…

@@wildernesswithamani1027 not saying it’s you
@@ReefMimic All good. Didn't feel like you were. I'm simply not a huge computer guy.
Damn always been spotting that lake but never pulled the trigger. Thanks for letting me know that there’s lots of regulations really helpful as always bro
Right on. Yeah, they got fishing that lake on a short leash!
I've been considering Sierra Slammers, what do you thinK? Watching the rest of Vid now.
They work just as good as any other jigs of that style. I just grabbed more at the Vons in Bishop when I was just there to make sure I'm stocked up!
I hit it there this past Saturday! Awesome hike in and out. I got my butt kiked though haha great stuff man! Least you caught something and got great views!
Man, I was done by the time I reached my car!
Looks like a nice day. One question though. Where is marlette lake?
Marlette Lake is in the mountains between Spooner Lake State Park and Chimney Beach (Lake Tahoe). You can hike or bike in from either side but the hike from Spooner Lake is easier in my opinion. It's around four and a half miles. I have the hike on my hiking playlist.
@@wildernesswithamani1027 thanks, i will give it a try.
That’s correct Bro, clip the others off, easy peasy, ✌🏽
Right on.
Why are there so many regulations at this lake
It's something to do with a stocking program. I think they get brood stock out of there.
How about it's the main supply of water for Carson City and storey county Nevada!

You should get a sinking fly line!
Maybe, probably.
When are you going to do a hunting video?
I don't hunt. I might go duck hunting with my buddy at some point but hunting is simply something I never got into. Always got my meat from the store!
hello amani have you ever fished at webber lake?
Not yet but I've heard a little about it. Perhaps at some point I'll get there.
@@wildernesswithamani1027 If I get there before you do I will let you know how it is
@@jimrobison4112 Right on. good luck.
How long of a hike?
If you go in from Spooner Lake, it is about 4.5 miles.

@@wildernesswithamani1027 I am 77 years old and I still do it with a 40 pound pack.
@@michaelperine2780 Right on. You got 27 years on me!
👍✌
Didn't get 'the big fish' but I had a fun day messing around up there.
Panthers and roosters , i have luck with fats sos
Has to be single barbless up there. I guess panthers could be modified. I'm a panther Martin guy myself. I like the easy spinning blade and lead body for better casting.
