Truckee River Fishing Report-12-9-19

by MATT KOLES
More rain and snow for the Truckee River. Not much here in the Hirsch, but some good snow up top. Mainly rain here. Little bump in the flows, big bump down on the lower river. River will level out this week, and it should be a good week for fishing. Good week last week. In Nevada, the streamer fishing was good. Good in December? Yes, it was

Fishing Has Been Very Good

by DOUG BUSEY
Fishing has been very good for anglers that have been able to dodge the weather.  The west side of the lake from Camp Richardson to just past Emerald Bay has been rated good for anglers trolling the rocky areas with Rapalas in 30 to 60 feet of water. Best areas for mackinaw has been the Tahoe shelf area or Carnelian Bay. Anglers have been trolling

Patience Pays Off

by THE TROUT FITTER STAFF
Flow Rates and Water Conditions: Water temperature is running in the high 40's and is in great shape clarity wise. Fishing Conditions and Hatches: The bite is on for big fish from 10-20lbs. This is prime time for your shot at double-digit fish! We landed a 21lb. a couple of days ago, then three over 10lbs. the next day. These fish are very strong right now and will

Truckee River Fishing Report

by MATT KOLES
Wet and soggy. Better than cold and dry though. If you came up last week, way too cold to fish. I didn’t bother going out, or take on any guide trips. We had cold and snow. This week is different. Warmer and wet. Some snow and mostly rain here in the Hirsch. Much warmer air temps this week and a little boost in the flows. Fishing is

Pyramid Lake Fishing Report

by MOUNTAIN HARDWARE & SPORTS
Cooler temperatures and shorter days are bringing fish in closer to shore, improving shore fishing . We expect this to further improve within the next few weeks. Lure fishermen are doing better off shore due to the fact they are able to cover deeper water more efficiently and those using flies should stick with stripping streamers off of the deeper beaches. Trollers are doing very

The Storms Are Treating The Lake Very Nicely!

by RENO FLY SHOP
The storms have been treating the lake very nicely! Surface temps are sub 50 degrees, and with the overcast and low pressure the Lahontan Cutthroat are getting shallow and feeding well. The indicator bite has begun to pick up, but the retrieve bite is still my preferred method. The trout seem to be pretty well scattered throughout the lake we’re seeing fish being caught on the

Water Clarity Has Been Really Clear

by RENO FLY SHOP
Truckee River  The water clarity on the Truckee River as of late has been really clear, making fish pretty spooky. Storms rolling in for the next few weeks will bring in some needed moisture and raise the river a few CFS while raising some turbidity as well. Otherwise, the fish are focused on small flies; sizes 18-20 and smaller if you dare. The trout have also

Truckee River Fishing Report-11-24-19

by MATT KOLES
Looks like we’re gonna have a winter after all. Big changes in the weather. We went from t’shirts to jackets in one day, and looking like it’s staying that way through December. Good. Decent snow this week. Too early to tell after next week, but if you’re looking at the weather models, or model riding, looking real good for Tahoe all of December. So, what’s that mean

Finally A Change in The Weather

by MATT KOLES
Finally a change in the weather. Not a big change, but at least it feels like fall now, or early winter?  Seems like it’s always feast or famine in Ca. You just never know what kind of winter we’ll have. We get pounded with snow, or we don’t. Truckee River is cold and low in Ca. Don’t mean you can’t catch fish. If you know the type
