Caples in great shape

Caples Lake - Kirkwood, CA (Alpine County)


by Nor Cal Fish Reports
6-3-2015

Fishing is great here at Caples Lake Resort. The lake level is at 60 feet (62’ lake level is full) and water is spilling over the edge of the spillway. Awesome news in this drought year. The Emigrant Lake Trail on the south side of the lake is free of snow and several guests have already hiked up to Emigrant Lake. Looks like a spectacular summer at Caples Lake thanks to the Eldorado Irrigation District (EID) keeping the outflow to a minimum this winter and spring and also due to the unexpected precipitation in April and May.
