    Olive Lake is a remote backcountry lake in the Sierra Nevada of California, supporting rainbow trout and brook trout fishing in a pristine alpine setting, offering anglers the remote experience characteristic of the California backcountry accessible only by trail. Spot Features: Olive Lake is a high-elevation Sierra Nevada lake in California with the clear, cold water typical of the California backcountry, accessible by trail. Rainbow trout and brook trout respond to small spinners, flies, and Power Bait fished near inlet streams and rocky shoreline edges. Check CDFW stocking records for current plant status and verify if wilderness permits are required. Seasonality: Rainbow trout are active from ice-out in late spring through the summer and into fall at Olive Lake, with the best action in early morning and evening. Brook trout feed year-round in the cold, high-elevation water and are particularly aggressive in fall before the winter freeze. The lake may be frozen from late fall through early spring.
