Walker River Fishing Report

Walker River

by DOUG BUSEY

The area between Wellington and Yerinton has been producing some good fishing. You will have to do some walking to get to the heavier waters. I would recommend a small spinner on the casting pole, or a copper jon on the fly rod.

Let Em Run

Pyramid Lake

by PYRAMID FLY CO.

What a wild week! For early December the lake is fishing extremely well. While we are still using the, "Quality over quantity", motto, some days can be a bit of both. As we pushed through the full moon the indicator bite produced some extremely nice fish. This fishery seems to be getting better and better. Where to fish one asks? Well, if I told you

Bobbers Dropping All Day!

Pyramid Lake

by PYRAMID FLY CO.

Jim’s first day at the lake was one to remember! The bobbers were dropping and more often than not they were good size fish. And when you’re 6’ 5” you make even the big fish look like normal ones. Needless to say, its only 4:30 and I’m tired from sprinting but and down the beach.

Waiting For Winter

Truckee River

by MATT KOLES

Waiting for winter. We have the cold, just need some snow. Flows are low, water is cold. High pressure looks to be parked over us for another 2 weeks, ugh. Very cold overnight lows, somewhat mild afternoons. Your best fishing, especially on the CA side will be later in the day when the water warms a bit. It’s cold and low and not easy fishing. Kinda like

Action at The lake Have Increased

Pyramid Lake

by RENO FLY SHOP

The action at the lake has increased as the trout are getting comfortable in depths less than 15 feet. Retrieving flies has still been the most productive, but midges and balanced leeches under the indicator are producing at times. Morning and evening bite, in low light conditions, has been best. The Cat Whisker and Deadpool Booby Fly have been very effective. Followed closely by the Midnight

Fish Have Acclimated To Winter Water Temps

Truckee River

by RENO FLY SHOP

The river has come up to a bit over 225 cfs through the downtown gauge and the temperatures are fluctuating from the high 30s to the mid 40s. The fish have acclimated to these wintery water temperatures and are starting to feeding midday as the water warms. Smaller nymphs under an indicator or European style nymphing has worked well. We’ve been using #18s-#20s with an

Sometimes We Get Lucky, But Always Have Fun!

Pyramid Lake

by PYRAMID FLY CO.

Sometimes one needs to improvise. In the beginning of this tussle the fly line wrapped around the reel. Shortly after she decided to take a long quick run after seeing the shallows, as these fish often do. Pulling the fly line out and around the reel a funky “pop” was heard in the line. With not much time to do anything other than let the

Cutthroat Bite is Picking Up

Pyramid Lake

Pyramid Lake Fly Fishing guides are on fire right now and our business partners (the fish) are cooperating fully. Monday was pretty normal for most of us but for these lucky clients,

Set on Everything!

Pyramid Lake

by PYRAMID FLY CO.

When indicator fishing dont always expect the bobber to suck under 3 feet. Especially in the choppy water. If that bobber looks suspect and does something odd more than likely it’s a fish. Sometimes the grabs are subtle, with a big fish on the end gracefully sucking up those bugs. Set on everything!

Winter Fishing on The Truckee

Truckee River

by MATT KOLES

Some snow and rain last week for the Truckee River. Things are back to normal now. Cold lower winter flows on the river. Winter fishing. Trouts are in the slower froggy water. Not always the easiest getting them to eat, but when you do, they’re usually good/bigger type fish. Not a lot of bugs, but give it about a month, and we’ll start seeing some strong bwo
