Riviera Marina Fishing Report

Colorado River - Laughlin

by RUSTY

Look where we live, I am just saying we have some great fishing opportunities here below the Davis Dam along the Colorado River. Our local and visiting anglers have been having some success along our shores and our pristine water way. Our local angler Dave Ensrud landed a nice striper in the Upper Big Bend Area. He was using anchovies for bait while fishing from his

Striper and bass have been biting more frequently throughout the lake

by PYRAMID LAKE STAFF

Striper and bass have been biting more frequently throughout the lake on various baits both from the shoreline and from boats. Soft plastics like smaller paddle tail baits on lead heads have been working well for stripers along with kastmasters and jerk baits. Sardines, anchovies, and lugworms have also been working well to come across the stripers throughout the day down deep, anywhere up to

Lahontan Reservoir Fishing Report

Lahontan Reservoir

by LAHONTAN STATE RECREATION AREA

Wiper/ White Bass: These fish are becoming more catchable. Most are reported in the narrows near the Dam. A 22 pounder was recently caught! Try white or shiny lures.

Nymphing is still going to be your best bet here

East Walker River Sceirine Ranch

by NEVADA DEPARTMENT OF WILDLIFE

The Ranch is fishing very much like the rest of the Nevada side, just not as much pressure of course. We’ve had both really good reports and some not so good reports come in from down there. Nymphing is still going to be your best bet here as well. We have quite a few reservations on the books so if you want to book some

Very mixed reports from the Nevada side of the river lately

East Walker River (NV)

by KENS SPORTING GOODS STAFF

The East is running at about 35cfs right now. We’ve had some very mixed reports from the Nevada side of the river lately, some anglers are reporting really good days with 15+ fish caught per day while other anglers are reporting much slower days with only 1 or 2 fish caught per day. The successful anglers we’ve spoken with have been doing the best with

Anglers can now access the Bruneau over the Gold Creek Road

by NEVADA DEPARTMENT OF WILDLIFE

In the eastern region stream flows are up from last week due to the shot of moisture on Thursday night. However, they are below the median for this time of year, many well below. Anglers can now access the Bruneau over the Gold Creek Road. The recent precipitation may make for some muddy driving conditions on the back roads and Waterlog Summit on the way

Very little change from past couple of weeks

Jakes Creek Reservoir (Boies Reservoir)

by NEVADA DEPARTMENT OF WILDLIFE

Very little change from past couple of weeks as the lake is nearly full and anglers are catching trout. The surface water temperatures are still in the mid 40’s due to the precipitation and colder air temperatures. Worms seem to be the presentation of choice, though small spinners should also work for those who want to throw some hardware. Fly rodders should be using chironomids,

Flows may make fishing difficult in the narrow parts of the creek

by NEVADA DEPARTMENT OF WILDLIFE

In the eastern region stream flows are down a bit from last week. Most streams are below the median for this time of year, many well below.

Owyhee River - East Fork

by NEVADA DEPARTMENT OF WILDLIFE

In the eastern region stream flows are up from last week due to the shot of moisture on Thursday night. However, they are below the median for this time of year, many well below.

Very small dry flies have also been effective on these warmer afternoons

by NEVADA DEPARTMENT OF WILDLIFE

Harrison Pass was dry and open for driving to the marsh this week. With the recent snow anglers should still be able to cross the pass, but have good snow tires and four wheel drive may be needed for a few days. Not much has changed as far as fishing conditions as fishing has been fair to good for 13 to 18-inch fish depending upon

Fishing in the coves as well as in the Hendricks and Penrod Arms from shore has been good for trout

Wild Horse Reservoir

by NEVADA DEPARTMENT OF WILDLIFE

Not much has changed since last week as fishing for trout continues to be good for trout but slow for perch after the perch die-off. Surface water temperatures were in the low 40’s earlier this week and with the precipitation and cooler temperatures probably won’t climb much over the next week. Those who have a boat will find that the northwest side of the lake

Fishing continues to be good for spin, bait and fly rodders

South Fork Reservoir

by NEVADA DEPARTMENT OF WILDLIFE

Little has changed in fishing conditions and the fishing has been good for trout at South Fork. Mid-week surface water temperatures ranged from 49 to 52 degrees, but with Thursday night’s snowfall expect them to drop a few degrees.

The lake was stocked with approximately

Illipah Reservoir

by NEVADA DEPARTMENT OF WILDLIFE

The lake ice free. The reservoir is at approximately 60% of capacity and slowly rising. Fishing has been good. Anglers will do well with a variety of night crawlers, PowerBait, and spinners. For bait anglers nightcrawlers and rainbow PowerBait are the best bet. Small spinners, spoons and Kastmasters in gold for those throwing hardware should work.

It seems that the fish at Pyramid have really begun to focus on their spawn

by TROUT CREEK OUTFITTERS

As is the case on other waters, it seems that the fish at Pyramid have really begun to focus on their spawn and the bite here has also slowed significantly unless you are opting to fish around the spawning zones here at the lake such as Pelican, the north nets or around popcorn where fish will congregate this time of year based on where they

Flows on the river this week as the flows hold around 500 CFS in Glenshire

by TROUT CREEK OUTFITTERS

Another week of snowy weather dropped over a foot in town and 2-3 feet along our peaks which should keep the Truckee fishing for just a little longer this summer. With this storm coming in cold very little of the precipitation came down as rain and therefore we haven’t seen a significant increase in flows on the river this week as the flows hold around

Wilson Reservoir

by NEVADA DEPARTMENT OF WILDLIFE

The road was in good shape earlier this week but with the recent precipitation may be muddy. However expect it to dry out quickly by the early next week.

The reservoir is filling nicely

Cold Creek Reservoir

by NEVADA DEPARTMENT OF WILDLIFE

This winter repairs to the outlet structure and the reservoir bottom were completed, thanks to Kinross Gold. The reservoir is filling nicely and it was stocked with approximately 1,500 trout the end of March. Expect good fishing for 10 to 14 inch fish using the same techniques and presentations as at South Fork. NDOW will begin rebuilding the Largemouth Bass fishery with augmentations this summer.
