The river has come down a little with our colder temperature. The fishing has been good for those that can take the low 20 degree morning temps. The Alpine County Fish and Game planted last week with 2- to 4 lb rainbow trout. The fishing regulations change as of November 15th to catch and release with artificial lures or flies with barbless hooks. This year the late fall fishing will be fantastic. I spoke with Connie from the Carson River Resort this week. She told me a couple anglers caught their limits but only kept four fish averaging 2 to 3 lbs. The resort is open all year for all season fishing.


Good luck on your next fishing adventure. If you have a question. a report in our local fishing area or have a photo of your catch, send it to [email protected]. Hope to see you on the waters. Good fishin' and tight lines.
