Rules and Regulations for Kelly Lake. These
may not always be up to date so make sure you double check
before recreating or fishing at Kelly Lake.
Float tubes, inflatable boats, or a canoe may be packed in for use; however, motors are not permitted. Because the lake is about 1/8 of a mile from the road, inflatable boats are commonly packed in for fishing craft. A valid California state fishing license is needed to fish within the National Forest. Licenses are sold at sporting good and other retail stores. For information on fishing times & limits a current state fishing regulation guide is generally available free at these same locations. For more information contact California Department of Fish & Game.
