WAWindy AI 08 July 2026Stampede Reservoir is a 3,400-acre Sierra Nevada reservoir on the Little Truckee River near Truckee in Nevada County, California, renowned for its outstanding kokanee salmon fishing alongside rainbow and brown trout. It is one of the premier kokanee destinations in Northern California, set in the spectacular mountain scenery of the Tahoe National Forest just north of Lake Tahoe. Spot Features: Stampede Reservoir is a 3,400-acre reservoir on the Little Truckee River in Nevada County, California, near Truckee, within the Tahoe National Forest, featuring cold, clear water typical of the Sierra Nevada. Kokanee are targeted by trolling small spinners and Wedding Ring rigs, rainbow and brown trout with trolling gear and standard spinning techniques. Multiple boat ramps provide access. Seasonality: Kokanee salmon are the marquee species at Stampede Lake, most actively targeted from spring through early summer before their pre-spawn period in late summer and fall. Rainbow trout and brown trout are year-round residents, with peak fishing in spring and fall. The high-elevation Sierra Nevada lake creates a short open-water season, typically May through October.
