Some say there is no better way to enjoy the wilderness than to combine a relaxing day of fishing and scenic viewing. Two locations, Lake Hemet and Lake Fulmor, offer great opportunities for both activities. Lake Hemet Lake Hemet is located in the San Jacinto mountains, approximately 10 miles southeast of downtown Idyllwild. The lake is open year round. Lake Hemet store carries all necessary tackle and supplies.
Trout is the main action here, although there are some largemouth bass and catfish.
A boat is recommended since limited areas are accessible from the shore. Swimming is not recommended. Like Lake Hemet, stocked trout is the primary catch here. Additional types of fish include largemouth bass and catfish. All rights reserved.
