The lake has dropped again, but the county ramp is still open and very usable NEW

 Topaz Lake
by DOUG BUSEY / Carson Now
The lake has dropped again, but the county ramp is still open and very usable. Small boats use the center dock, while the taller boats use the right dock. Renee and I fished a few hours last week, with nine fish to the boat and lost about another 10. Rapalas were the ticket, and the early morning bite was on. After 1 or 2 p.m., the

The recent reports at the lake describe the deep-water bite as hit or miss right now

 Pyramid Lake
by TROUT CREEK OUTFITTERS
The recent reports at the lake describe the deep-water bite as hit or miss right now. Despite the colder days this week, the fish are still holding in that 40–60-foot range most consistently, and the best way to get into them will be using heavy jigs and a fish finder. Find the bait, and you’ll find the trout. The fish also appear to be a

The Truckee River is in its average fall flows right now

 Truckee River
by TROUT CREEK OUTFITTERS
The Truckee River is in its average fall flows right now, with Glenshire at only around 100 CFS, and the canyon around 400. The upper section of river will be a good place to throw dry dropper set ups and fish any of the deeper runs you can find. There are plenty of fish up here and it will still fish good despite the low

 Pyramid Lake
by MOUNTAIN HARDWARE & SPORTS
The fishing season at Pyramid Lake is now open. Most of the fish are currently deep, around 70 to 80 feet in depth in the thermocline.

The season started off slower then previous openers with quality ruling over quantity for fly fisherman. Large concentrations of Tui Chubs can be seen all throughout the lake.
