There is still a good hatch of PMDs happening every day, providing some consistent dry action

The LT has been sitting at +/-45 CFS for a few weeks now, which is near minimum flows. This is typical for late summer but is unfortunate when combined with the warm temps on the Truckee driving even more traffic up here because of its consistently cold tailwater releases. The low flows and heavily pressured fish will make for some very technical fishing out here, and 7x tippet and size 22-24 flies are often the key to success during these conditions. There is still a good hatch of PMDs happening every day, providing some consistent dry action, but as we head into the fall, we are also seeing midges and baetis come back into play for topwater fishing once again.
