Location Information
Bowman Lake is located approximately 9 miles north of Bear Valley Picnic Ground. Ten to twenty thousand fingerling rainbows and browns are planted each year. Larger browns are found in various locations on the lake and boat anglers will have better luck than those fishing from the shore. Easy access from the Bowman Road, 4 WD not necessary, but the road is very rocky. Trailers not recommended.
