Truckee River Fishing Report

by MOUNTAIN HARDWARE & SPORTS
The Truckee River isn’t seeing a lot of dry fly activity until later in the evening, so anglers should switch to mostly caddis nymphing in the morning and mid day. If you’re trying dry flies in the evening, try using tan and olive cutters, small elk hair caddis, little yellow sallies, or pale morning duns. Streamer fishing has also been great with sculpin or black

It’s Summer on The Truckee River

by MATT KOLES
It’s summer on the Truckee River. Good and hot in the afternoons, nice in the mornings. Flows could not be better, and the fishing is good all up and down the river. I know where to find them trouts, when the water is warm. They can’t hide. Good dependable flows, and stable hot weather mean those fish are in the fast water. I know how to read

Great Flow and Good Water Temps on The Truckee

by MOUNTAIN HARDWARE & SPORTS
The Truckee River currently has great flows with good water temperatures. Fish are holding in the faster water and deeper pools. The flows increase significantly towards state line Nevada so anything lower river is big water. In the evening, anglers have been seeing good dry fly activity. Some flies to try in the evening are multiple species of caddis, pale morning duns, yellow stones, midges,

Good Solid Fishing on The Truckee

Really good solid fishing on the Truckee River. Flows are down to a prefect 675 cfs in the Hirsch. Trout’n is good. Hasn’t gotten that hot yet either. Nice and cool out there in the mornings.

Tahoe Topliners Fishing Report

by MIKE NIELSEN
Yesterday the fish social distanced for me. We got Brown only to have one of three decked. Then the lakers did the same not nearly the amount of bites and lots of loss.  Crazy to water Temps go from 64 down to 56 degrees but 3 days of big wind / waves seemed to stir things pretty good. See what today has on tap!

Poor guy in middle gave up his breakfast 3 times and it was fight keeping things

Hooking Good Numbers of Fish Every Morning

by MATT KOLES
Rolling right along on the Truckee River.  Hooking pretty good numbers of fish every morning. That is, if you can wade and get around in the river. Trouts are in the fast oxygenated water. You have to get in there and get to them. You have to cover water and understand where exactly to put your flies. Get out in the mornings, that is your best
