Nevada Fish Reports


Topaz Lake Report

by DOUG BUSEY
 Many of us have heard of the tragic accident, when a boat capsized on the lake last weekend. I cannot stress the importance of safety and life jackets while out on any body of water. Remember that this time of year. The outside temperatures may be in the 70's or 80's. But the water temperature was 47 degrees on my last trip to the lake.

The bite at Pyramid continues to be a little spotty this week with mixed reports of varied success

by TROUT CREEK OUTFITTERS
The bite at Pyramid continues to be a little spotty this week with mixed reports of varied success. It appears to be mostly a stripping game at the moment and using a type 3 sinking line with buggers, boobies and beetles on beaches with a gradual drop off seems the most consistent. As we come into the tail end of the season out here the

We are starting to see a good mix of spring hatches happen

by TROUT CREEK OUTFITTERS
Right now the Truckee is still holding at around 1,000 CFS in the canyon section but the big change has come upstream along Glenshire Drive where flows have gone up to around 750 CFS thanks to heavy run off in the upstream creeks, primarily Donner Creek which is flowing at around 300 CFS near the confluence of the Truckee. This has added some turbidity to

We didn’t have much traffic on the ranch this week

by KENS SPORTING GOODS STAFF
We didn’t have much traffic on the ranch this week, it’s likely fishing similar to the California side of the river though. A couple patterns I’d add to the mix down there would be a dead drift crayfish and maybe a rubberleg.

More wind for the Truckee River Fly Fishing Report

by MATT KOLES
More wind for the Truckee River Fly Fishing Report. Winds been pretty gnarly lately. Since the end of March, it really hasn’t stopped. Of course, we needed that rain and snow and cooler temps, but man, enough already. Looking good of the weekend though. Just have to make it too Weds. Flows got big. 1000 k, here in the Hirsch, 1,300 near Farad, and a bit lower

Striper fishing heats up at Lake Mead

by ARIZONA GAME & FISH DEPARTMENT
As temperatures have warmed, fishing is getting better at Lake Mead. Right now, anglers and other lake users can enjoy the lake, but with some caveats due to dropping water levels. Read Don Martin's recent article in the Kingman Daily Miner. Please note that after the article was published, the Lake Mead Recreation Area announced that the South Cove Ramp is now closed due to

Riviera Marina Fishing Report

by RUSTY
The fishing just keeps getting better. That is along our shores of the Colorado river here below the Davis dam. Up on Lake Mohave the winds have been brutal and are keeping most at bay so to say. Which leads to not much to report from the lake. The marsh has been slow to have any reports as of yet. I am assuming the largemouth

I can’t say enough how good Lake Mohave is for Smallmouth and Largemouth bass right now. Fishing with my life long friend Shea Mac @stokedonfishing so many good times on the water this past week. We have some great episodes coming out in the next day or 2 on YouTube, subscribe The Hunting and Fishing Show.. This toad was caught on one of my hand

Windy, but nice weather this week for the Truckee River Fly Fishing Report

by MATT KOLES
Windy, but nice weather this week for the Truckee River Fly Fishing Report. Always windy in the spring, but man, the weather has been about perfect. Nice big flows and some fat fish. People always ask me, when’s my favorite time, well, Spring is hard to beat. Of course, you can get skunked anytime of year on this river, but when the trees are all budding

Nice last cast buck to end the day

by PYRAMID FLY CO.
Kirt caught a hot bite window the other afternoon and tricked a few nice Pilots with Doug’s Popcorn beetle. Nice last cast buck to end the day.

All sections of the river seem to be pretty tough overall lately

by KENS SPORTING GOODS STAFF
The Ranch fished about the same as the California side this weekend with a couple anglers getting into 5 or 6 fish per day and other anglers getting into none or just 1 or 2. All sections of the river seem to be pretty tough overall lately, including the Rosachi, Sceirine, and both the upper and lower sections in California. The anglers who did have

Pyramid Lake has seen a reboot in fishing success this week

by RENO FLY SHOP
Pyramid Lake has seen a reboot in fishing success this week. The post spawn bite has started and will conclude the big push of the annual spring spawn. Big LCT are hungry after not feeding the last few weeks and are eager to chase flies. Streamer fishing has been most productive at a growing number of beaches. Using flies like Jan’s Tui Chub or bigger

Following the spring storm this past week, the Truckee boasted some great fishing throughout multiple sections

by RENO FLY SHOP
Following the spring storm this past week, the Truckee boasted some great fishing throughout multiple sections. We saw warmer days following the storm which resulted in increased feeding activity. Here in Reno, flows have hovered between 800-950cfs. While flows are higher than they’ve been in the past few months, the spring flows we are experiencing now are still very fishable and yielding impressive results. If

Late April Fish Report- Pyramid Lake

by BEARFISH ALLIANCE STAFF
Holy Smokes, we had a run of what seemed like endless weather events in northern Nevada that made the fishing tough at the Mid for a while, but nevertheless when that window of opportunity opened it would turn on for the anglers.  The fish are on the tail end of the spawn, so look to shift your techniques accordingly. Right now we are having good luck

Efforts to restore the fishery at Little Washoe Lake are underway!

by NEVADA DEPARTMENT OF WILDLIFE
Exciting news! Efforts to restore the fishery at Little Washoe Lake are underway! The Mason Valley Fish Hatchery truck visited the lake this week to stock it with 450 channel catfish from Rye Patch Reservoir. Most of these fish are about 8 inches or larger, and we expect them to grow and flourish! We are hoping to stock Little Washoe with more fish later this
