 Truckee River
by MATT KOLES / Gilligan's Fly Service

The lake level is still dropping, in just one week, the level went down another 5 or so feet

 Topaz Lake
by DOUG BUSEY / Carson Now
The lake level is still dropping. In just one week, the level went down another 5 or so feet. That makes it nice to drive right down to the boat-launch area and back right in. I trolled the lake on all sides with various sizes of Rapalas and a few flies. I toplined and took them deep. After four hours without a bite for trout, I

Lake Tahoe Fishing Report

 Lake Tahoe
by DOUG BUSEY / Carson Now

He has always done well on the shelf off Ski Run, but this year it hasn't been so good. Most anglers have been pulling a dodger and a live minnow close to

Riviera Marina Fishing Report

 Lake Mohave
by RUSTY / Riviera Marina
Our local angler, Steve Beasley, landed a nice largemouth bass while fishing from his boat. He was using a jig that usually produces a striper or two. We have a great largemouth and smallmouth bass population up on Lake Mohave. These fish are considered sport fish, and most anglers practice catch-and-release with them. Anglers go as far as using live wells to keep their fish healthy

 Colorado River - Davis Dam
by RUSTY / Riviera Marina
Our local angler, Steve Beasely, landed a couple of nice stripers while trolling on Lake Mohave near Davis Dam. He was using a jig to land these fish, and other anglers are also getting a few stripers on anchovies and swim baits. Here along the shores of the Colorado River below Davis Dam, anchovies have been producing very well. We have a lot of great spots
