Fish Grant Lake, June Lake, California

Add to My List Check Off

Despite being the largest lake in the June Lake Loop, it’s easy to overlook Grant Lake. The 1,100-acre lake is more than three miles long, which allows plenty of room for all kinds of activities even on the busiest days. About eight miles from the hustle and bustle of June Lake, the shores of the manmade Gant Lake are barren of trees and, it often seems, the same can be said of people, but that’s far from the case. Created by the LADWP in 1916 when Rush Creek was dammed, Grant is home to some of the largest rainbows in the region and is one of the best spots for motorized watersports like water skiing, wakeboarding and jet skiing. Grant Lake offers plenty of room for both anglers and watersports fans to enjoy their days without impeding upon on another. Grant also has eight miles of shoreline, which can be great for fishing, barbecues by the beach or just as nice spots to enjoy the lake’s impressive views of 12,000’ Mount Wood and the High Sierra. Directions: From June Lake, head north eight miles on Highway 158. From Lee Vining head south approximately 11 miles on Highway 395 to the junction of Highway 158 (June Lake Loop) and proceed six miles south to the lake.
