The Prophet Returns to Lake Tahoe: Stronger, Cleaner, and Better Than Ever

After nearly a year away in the Pacific Northwest, The Prophet, our largest vessel in our fleet, is officially back on Lake Tahoe. ⚓️

This upgrade has been a long time coming, and we couldn’t be more proud to share what’s new.


A Year in the Making

Over the past year, The Prophet underwent a major rebuild. The project focused on improving environmental performance, maneuverability, and guest experience, making her one of the cleanest, most advanced fishing vessels on the lake today.

Here’s what’s new:

  • Brand new engines: Tier 3 EPA compliant for cleaner, more efficient operation

  • A newly installed bow thruster

  • Complete exterior repaint

  • Custom fly bridge (installed this winter)

  • New upper deck railing and seating

  • New radar arch and swim deck


A Legacy Refreshed

Originally designed as an ocean-going vessel, The Prophet joined our Tahoe Sportfishing fleet in 1998 and has been a cornerstone of our operations ever since. These upgrades ensure she’ll continue leading the way for years to come, now with quieter engines, smoother handling, and a cleaner environmental footprint.

Whether you’re joining us for your first fishing trip or have been fishing Tahoe with us for years, you’ll notice the difference the moment you step aboard.


What’s Next

The finishing touch

The Prophet’s custom fly bridge is being installed this winter. It will feature new guest seating, upgraded railings, and panoramic views of Lake Tahoe from above deck.

We can’t wait to welcome you aboard for her first full season back on the lake in 2026.


Come see the upgrades for yourself.
In the meantime, she is back in the water and fishing this fall! Book your next fishing trip on The Prophet by calling 530-541-5448 or visit TahoeSportFishing.com.
