    Sand Lake is a remote alpine lake in California's High Sierra supporting rainbow trout, brook trout, and potentially golden trout in a pristine Sierra Nevada wilderness setting accessible only by trail. Spot Features: Sand Lake is a remote high-altitude lake in the California Sierra Nevada with sandy areas interspersed with granite. Golden trout may be present alongside rainbow and brook trout. Small flies and spinners are most effective in these clear mountain waters. Seasonality: Rainbow trout, brook trout, and golden trout are active from ice-out in July through September at Sand Lake (CA) in the California High Sierra. The brief alpine summer is the only fishing window.
