Trout Diving Deeper, Bass Bite Has Been Good

by NEVADA DEPARTMENT OF WILDLIFE

Comins Lake has water temperatures in the 70’s which is driving the trout deeper and helping the bass bite. Anglers need to fish full sink lines and get to the lower depths. Trout fishing is best first thing in the morning. Fly fisherman should use wooly buggers, leech patterns, and nymphs patterns (midges, beaded pheasant tails…etc.) fished under an indicator. Bass fishing is good and

Trout Fishing Has Been Fair

Illipah Reservoir

by NEVADA DEPARTMENT OF WILDLIFE

Trout fishing has been fair here but they have moved into deeper water. The usual flies like wooly buggers, prince nymphs, hares ears and chironomid patterns should all work. Small spinners, PowerBait and worms should be effective as well.
