Nevada Fish Reports

Anglers report fair to good fishing for both rainbow and tiger trout on small black or olive crystal or wooly buggers as well as black leeches. Chironomids, pheasant tail nymphs, gold ribbed hare’s ears and soft hackles under an indicator or dry fly should also work.  Dry flies are also productive.  Popular patterns include parachute Adams, black gnats, yellow stimulators and grasshoppers.  Spin fishermen should

Very little change here as surface water temperatures are in the high 70’s and fishing for bass has been good while trout fishing has been slow as they move to deeper water. The south end of the lake is very weedy and there is a lot of algae.  Fishing has been fair for 15-to 20-inch trout for spin, bait and fly rodders from boats or

Cave Lake is lowered to minimum and unfishable. Fish stocking will resume once the dam repairs are completed. Cave Lake is closed to fishing due to shorelines that are very soft and dangerous due to the complete saturation of the soil as the lake is drained.  By draining the lake, it should shave a couple of years off the re-building of the dam and cut

No recent report but anglers can expect to catch hatchery size, 8-to-10-inch rainbows. Fishing for Largemouth Bass is slow because the drawdowns over the last few winters but there are a few bass left in the reservoir. NDOW will continue to work to rebuilding the Largemouth Bass fishery with augmentations this summer.

Surface water temperatures are in the 70’s and fishing is fair for trout and fair to good for bass. With the warmer temperatures, anglers should be fishing deeper for trout.  Nightcrawlers have been working for trout though anglers have also been doing well using PowerBait. Black or olive wooly buggers and black, olive or wine-colored leech patterns on a fast sinking line are also productive

The lake level is low due to irrigation and surface water temperatures are above 70 degrees and fishing has been slow to fair for trout. The best fishing is first thing in the morning.  Afternoons are poor. For bait anglers nightcrawlers and rainbow PowerBait are the best bet. Small spinners, spoons and Kastmasters in gold for those throwing hardware should work but allow plenty of

Marlette has been steady this season and should continue to fish well through the close of the season. Trolling large leech patterns behind a sinking line and float tube will catch fish all day at Marlette. During low light periods some good fish have been seen cruising the shoreline actively feeding on midge, mayflies, and damsels. Some good Brook trout should start to show up

We are in full summer mode which means stocking has slowed at many of the community ponds until water temperatures come down some. The Sparks Marina would be one of the few exceptions to this. Even though we’re not out planting, there’s still fish to be caught. Baily Pond and the Verdi Mill Ponds both have excellent populations of easy to catch panfish. Green sunfish
