Make Bucks Lake
Lodge YOUR Fishing
Headquarters In
Plumas County!
P
lumas County’s Bucks Lake, the
centerpiece of recreation in Central
Plumas County, is 17 miles south-west
of Quincy, past the small community of
Meadow Valley.
This beautiful, semi-isolated destina-
tion offers year-round enjoyment at an
elevation of 5,200 feet. With 17 miles of
shoreline, sandy beaches and tall pines,
Bucks Lake attracts fishermen, campers,
hikers and water sports enthusiasts in the
temperate months, and snowmobilers and
snowshoe explorers in the winter.
Fishing is great for rainbow, brook and
brown trout, kokanee salmon and trophy
mackinaw. Water-skiing and jet-skiing,
swimming, boating, nine
campgrounds and a marina
are also featured at the lake.
If you need a place to stay
at Bucks Lake and camping
isn’t your cup of tea, Bucks
Lake Lodge has got you
covered. The lodge features
11 European housekeeping
cabins. These are cozy, rustic
cabins that house from 2-10 people. They
have furnished kitchens and are open all
year.
For more information or to book your
cabin give Bucks Lake Lodge a call at
(530) 283-2262.
Tip Your Apex?
A
pex Lures are deadly on trout,
landlocked kings and kokanee,
that’s no secret. But what many anglers
don’t realize is that at times dressing your
Apex with bait can be the extra stimulus
that makes fish strike.
Experienced trout anglers often dress
their Apex Lures with a small piece of
worm threaded on the hook.
For kings a thin strip of anchovy skin
works great. And of course, if ‘kokes are
the target you’ll want to tip the lure with
either shoepeg corn or a tiny piece of
canned pink “salad” shrimp.
When tipping be sure to check the
action of your lure in the water to ensure
that you haven’t overwhelmed the lure
action by using a piece of bait that is too
large. If you find the action impaired de-
crease the size of the bait until the action
is restored and hang on because hard
strikes will follow!
