We haven’t fished the Upper much lately while focusing on the local lakes and backcountry. As of a couple weeks ago, in the Longears section, we were getting a few small Browns and Rainbows mostly on Caddis flies. Temps are in the 90s out there so we’ll get back to it when it cools down a bit and keep our fingers crossed for a decent hopper season in August.

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 nevada@fishreports.com. Hope to see you on the waters. Good fishin' and tight lines.
