Truckee River Fishing Report

by MATT KOLES

Cold and windy, then warm. Kinda how it is when we don’t have any storms. Cold inside sliders, no moisture, just cold and wind. It might warm up a few days in the week, and it’s back to cold again. Mid 30’s, with 20 mph winds just wear on you. Hopefully, we can get at least a few big storms in March. Typically, March is one

The Midges Are Back in Town!

by RENO FLY SHOP

The midges are back in town! It is that time of year when the midges bite picks up and the indicator bite really gets into its stride. Darker midges have been best, my go to is a black body copper wire midges with a little hot spot around the collar. Depth is critical when it comes to midges fishing I will change my depth throughout

The Truckee Has Been Fishing Well

by RENO FLY SHOP

The Truckee River has been fishing well! We are really seeing fish activity pick up as the days get longer and water temperatures begin to rise between winter storms. Nymphing the slow to medium/slow water with indicators or with ESN techniques have all been effective. Fly selection is still small #16-#20, but we are catching fish on many different patterns in that size range. Finally, passing

Pyramid Lake Fishing Report

by RENO FLY SHOP

The recent storm cycle has really improved fishing at the lake. Seems as if the combination of wind and precip has been able to raise the water temps a few degrees and encourage the fish to move into the shallows with some more regularity. The approach can vary, stripping or indicator, daily so be prepared with both rigs. A couple tips to think about: When fishing a

The River Has Benefited From Recent Storms

by RENO FLY SHOP

The river has also benefitted from recent storms. Cloud cover and some natural runoff have created great conditions. Focus on the cloudy days when you can and mid day has been fishing the best with the most bug activity. We have been finding most of our fish using small dark nymphs and egg patterns. The Baetis are still showing up mid day and the fish are
