Corrine Lake
A quiet, free shore-fishing lake in the foothills near Oakhurst.
About
Corrine Lake is a small reservoir tucked into the pine foothills between Oakhurst and North Fork. It's linked by flume to Manzanita Lake as part of an old PG&E hydroelectric water system, but don't expect any polish from that pedigree — there's no marina, no crowd, and no fanfare here: just a shoreline pull-off for anglers who want quiet water.
What to expect
The lake is fed by a flume running down from Manzanita Lake, part of the same PG&E system. Because it's tied into an active water system, levels swing with drawdowns, so don't expect a full pool on every visit. Boating and swimming aren't allowed — this is a shore-fishing spot, plain and simple.
Fishing
- Stocked with rainbow trout, typically in the late-winter-into-spring stocking season
- Also holds crappie and carp
- Best action lines up with stocking, so check current conditions before you drive out
