Douglas County Fish Reports

Many of us have heard of the tragic accident, when a boat capsized on the lake last weekend. I cannot stress the importance of safety and life jackets while out on any body of water. Remember that this time of year. The outside temperatures may be in the 70's or 80's. But the water temperature was 47 degrees on my last trip to the lake.

Early spring flows on the Carson are at about 250 cfs and fishing has been good. This will likely change as runoff intensifies. Fishing can really be hit or miss this time of year. Expect stocking to pick up again in the next few weeks as flows come down. It’s good to keep in mind that dark flies and lures are easier for fish to

Lake Tahoe

by NEVADA DEPARTMENT OF WILDLIFE

Good reports from the Lake for small macs. The cold temps are helping to bring the fish up.

Mitch Pond Fishing Report

Mitch Pond

by NEVADA DEPARTMENT OF WILDLIFE

The hatchery trucks are out working hard which means that many of our community ponds in the western region have received one round of trout this season. As weather and water conditions allow for it, they’ll continue to get fish supplemented as needed. Powerbait off the bottom is typically the best go-to fishing method at the western community ponds. When vegetation covering the bottom is an

Spooner Lake
