Kirch Wildlife Managment Area Report

Kirch Wildlife Management Area

by NEVADA DEPARTMENT OF WILDLIFE

Water levels remain low with shoreline aquatic vegetation making fishing from shore difficult. Several anglers did very well over the weekend from the dam at Haymeadow bringing in several trout measuring 13–15 inches using powerbait or spinning lures. Overnight temperatures have been dropping below freezing which should help the vegetation problems over the next few weeks.

Trout Action and Has Been Very Good Around the Lake

Eagle Valley Reservoir

by NEVADA DEPARTMENT OF WILDLIFE

The nighttime temperatures have been dropping into the teens which has stimulated trout action and has been very good around the lake with the fish taking Powerbait in orange, green or rainbow colorations, along with small spinning lures, spoons, and flies. Gold ribbed hares ear nymphs are working very well along the dam. With the chilling waters the bass and crappie have really slowed down.

Improved the Trout Action

Echo Canyon Reservoir

by NEVADA DEPARTMENT OF WILDLIFE

Chilly overnight temperatures have caused a stop to bass and crappie action but have improved the trout action. Fish are taking a variety of baits and lures with Powerbait in orange, green or rainbow working best off the dam.

Trout Imitation Lures to Catch Stripers

by NEVADA DEPARTMENT OF WILDLIFE

Striper Bite is Just Taking Off

by RUSTY

Up on Lake Mohave the striper bite is just taking off with the coves near the power lines starting to produce a few. Its best to try near the openings and watch for the birds to know where a school might be. Down river near the dam the Arizona side is also starting to get active. Here along the Colorado river below the Davis Dam

Colorado River - Davis Dam

by RUSTY

We are getting some great Rainbow Trout from the Willow Beach Hatchery. The hatchery is bringing us over 800 trout at each of the stocking sites. A reminder if you are going to practice catch and release cut or smash the barb so as not to hurt the fish. A injured trout will not survive so be careful or keep the fish for the dinner

Good to Really Good up Here on the Truckee River.

by MATT KOLES

Good to really good up here on the Truckee River. October is always a good month on the river as long as the weather cooperates. It has, meaning we’ve actually had some weather. Not an extended summer. I’m still spending most of my time on the Nevada side of the Truckee River, down lower in and around The Nature Conservancy. Good stuff, big fish. I opened

Fishing About the Same as the California Side

East Walker River Sceirine Ranch

by JIM REID

The ranch has been fishing about the same as the California side, some good reports and some not so good. There wasn’t as much traffic on the ranch this week as in the last couple weeks so we haven’t had as many reports lately. The same patterns have been working down there with the addition of some stonefly nymphs.
