Wide open bite today

It couldn’t come quick enough this year, and we are so stoked that the opener is around the corner on October 1! So with that being said you probably need to prep (if you haven’t already) for all the basic necessities for the ‘Mid. Cutties will more than likely be running a bit deep and probably chasing bait balls…so I would say that one prep

The Upper Truckee river is fishing great in the morning with pale morning duns, caddis, and blue winged olives. Dry fly activity starts as early as 8am here and anglers should concentrate on fishing the deeper pools. Towards Glenshire Drive, anglers can expect small hatches periodically throughout the day. The deeper pools also seem to fishing best here. And down in Floriston and Farad, the

As we said in the last report, the Federal Water Master has begun throttled down flows on the Truckee River. To maintain as much water as possible in the river TMWA and the irrigation companies have been asked to shut off the power and irrigation ditches.

The smoke has cleared. Thankfully South Lake was spared from the Calder Fire. Man that was close. Clean air and great weather now. Flows on the Truckee River aren’t great, but they’re not horrible either. You can look at the glass half empty, or half full. 200 cfs ain’t too shabby right here in the Hirsch. I’ve seen many a falls when the water has been much lower.

That’s the Truckee River in the nutshell, at least on the Nevada side. With low water levels, low flow, and roller coaster temps that are running from 62 in the morning up to 74 in the afternoon its probably best to just leave the trout alone.
