Riviera Marina Fishing Report

Colorado River - Laughlin

by RUSTY

Here are a couple of our younger anglers with a super nice largemouth bass! This fish was landed while fishing from shore. Nick Navarrette and Mason Lucchino caught this beautiful bass using a spinnerbait. The fish weighed an impressive 6.20 pounds and measured 24½ inches long. It was a little disappointing that they didn't know to release it, but I took the opportunity to explain that

The fishing has been slow and most of the stripers caught have been on the smaller size

Colorado River - Willow Beach

by ARIZONA GAME & FISH DEPARTMENT

The fishing has been slow and most of the stripers caught have been on the smaller size. Anglers may still be able to get lucky catching bigger stripers, and it’s reported that using trout imitation baits can help. The rainbow trout are still going strong for those fishing on or shortly after each Thursday that they are stocked. Anglers are using worms, PowerBait, and spinners

The fishing has slowed down on the lake

by ARIZONA GAME & FISH DEPARTMENT

The fishing has slowed down on the lake. The anglers that are having the most success are going out early in the morning before sunrise to fish topwater for largemouth, smallmouth, and striped bass. Many smaller stripers in the 1- to 2-pound range are being caught. Trolling using a buck-tailed jig or swimbaits in a trout pattern has also been good to anglers looking for

Anglers have reported success catching largemouth, smallmouth, and striped bass on the lake

by ARIZONA GAME & FISH DEPARTMENT

Anglers have reported success catching largemouth, smallmouth, and striped bass on the lake. To maximize your chance of success at catching some of these fish, try fishing off the topwater as early in the day as you can, or later at night. Anglers have reported success using reaction baits, crank baits, and flukes in a shad pattern. For any fishing done later in the middle

The striper bite has been reported to be slow below the Davis Dam

Colorado River - Davis Dam

by ARIZONA GAME & FISH DEPARTMENT

The striper bite has been reported to be slow below the Davis Dam, and most of the stripers caught have been smaller in size. Anglers have had some success using anchovies, but location is going to be the most important factor in catching a fish. Before sunrise, try fishing shallower water and go deeper as it gets warmer. Look for spots with shade, where stripers

The Truckee River has seen stable flows but rising water temps this week

by TROUT CREEK OUTFITTERS

The Truckee River has seen stable flows but rising water temps this week. Anyone looking to fish the T should do so in the morning hours. How late in the day you can fish will depend on the section of river, with the Glenshire area warming quicker than down in the canyon, due to the Little Truckee confluence providing a bit of cold water relief.

Stocking notice

Colorado River - Willow Beach

by WILLOW BEACH NATIONAL FISH HATCHERY

Stocking notice: 900 Rainbow trout were released today at the Willow Beach fishing pier in Willow Beach, AZ. Thursday, July 16th, 2026

As weeds take over the shorelines, anglers should access the middle of the reservoir

Jakes Creek Reservoir (Boies Reservoir)

by NEVADA DEPARTMENT OF WILDLIFE

As weeds take over the shorelines, anglers should access the middle of the reservoir with kayaks, float-tubes, etc. for better opportunity. Bass fishing has been good with fish in the 11-13 inch range being caught. Try soft plastics in darker colors with a little sparkle. Catfishing has been fair, with just a few fish in the 3-5 pound range being caught. Fishing for trout has slowed

The bass bite is on

by NEVADA DEPARTMENT OF WILDLIFE

Fishing is still fair to good in the collection ditch for rainbow trout and tiger trout, with a few brown trout also being picked up. Fly anglers are reporting success with trout on nymphs like the copper john and gold-ribbed hare’s ear. With temperatures warming up through July, try switching to dry fly patterns. Small, flashy spinners like Panther Martins are the go-to for spin

Surface water temp is sitting at 75 degrees

Wild Horse Reservoir

by NEVADA DEPARTMENT OF WILDLIFE

Surface water temp is sitting at 75 degrees. Algae is growing fast and water levels are very low. The boat ramp will be pulled as soon as the water drops to a level that is unsafe for use. Rainbow trout, brown trout, tiger trout and wiper were stocked this spring. Trout fishing remains fair to good in the early mornings and late evenings, with most catches

Bass fishing is good around the reservoir

South Fork Reservoir

by NEVADA DEPARTMENT OF WILDLIFE

Rainbow trout, brown trout, wiper, channel catfish and bluegill have all been stocked this spring. With the warmer weather, trout action is tapering off by mid-morning. In the early morning, try to match the insects that trout are rising for. Experiment with nymphs under and indicator or switch to your favorite dry fly pattern. As the day warms, fish retreat from the shallows into the

Typical Summer fly fishing on the Truckee River

by MATT KOLES

Cool mornings, hot and windy afternoons. Blue bird sun all day, (except the last few days of thunderstorms remnants from the monsoons in the 4 corners area). Fishing is good if we get out in the mornings and nymph the pocket water. If you can wade around in the river, you're going to do much better than someone that can't. It's that simple. Euro rigs usually reign

Fishing has been good for stocked trout in the 9 inch range

by NEVADA DEPARTMENT OF WILDLIFE

Fishing has been good for stocked trout in the 9″ range. Anglers are catching a mixed bag of cutthroat, rainbows and tigers. For bait anglers, green PowerBait or nightcrawlers are preferred. For fly anglers, try dry fly patterns in the warm mid-summer weather. Ant, mosquito and royal wulff patterns are some favorites.

The ranch is still fishing well

East Walker River Sceirine Ranch

by KENS SPORTING GOODS STAFF

The ranch is still fishing well with mostly good reports coming in from up there. As with the Cali side the water temps are getting up there in the afternoon so it's best to work it for a half day in the morning or evening for now. A full day booking is still good as you can fish the morning then take a break for

Fishing has been best up on the north end for mackinaws

by DOUG BUSEY

Fishing has been best up on the north end for mackinaws around the McKinney Bay area or Dollar Point. Keep an eye on your depth finder. There are some sharp ledges up there, but that is what holds the fish in the area. A dodger and a live minnow in 150 to 200 feet of water has been the ticket. Some anglers have been doing well

Topaz Lake Fishing Report

by DOUG BUSEY

I fished the lake this week. Started at 5:30 a.m. and ended at noon. I had plenty of hits and plenty of fish right up to the boat, but that's what we call a short-distance release. All of the fish were suspended in 8 to 15 feet of water. I used my lead line with an F5 Hot Steel pattern and an F7 jointed perch-colored Rapala. These two

Lots of weather changes

by TROUT CREEK OUTFITTERS

Thanks to the abnormally cold weather last week, the Truckee has narrowly avoided any hoot owl restrictions as we head into July, the warm weather in this weeks forecast will likely change things quickly in this respect, so if fishing later in the week, be sure to focus on the mornings and consider bringing a thermometer with you if you want to extend you day

Lots of good looking rainbows

by MOUNTAIN HARDWARE & SPORTS

Current Water Conditions Flows measuring 269 CFS out of Tahoe City, 270 CFS through the town of Truckee, 313 CFS through the Glenshire area, and 573 CFS near Farad. Water temperatures are starting to increase with the warmer weather pattern the area is seeing. Because of that, early mornings are the best times to fish. With water temperatures increasing, bring a thermometer to test the temperature

Weathers been really nice

by MATT KOLES

4th of July weekend. Big weekend in Lake Tahoe, and on the Truckee River. Lots of folks in town. Just try to go Safeway in Truckee, I dare you. Weathers been really nice. Not too hot at all. In fact cold in the mornings. That should change a bit this week, and we'll get back to more Summer /hotter weather. That should put trouts back into

Ruby Lake Fishing Report

by NEVADA DEPARTMENT OF WILDLIFE

Fishing is still fair to good in the collection ditch for rainbow trout and tiger trout, with a few brown trout also being picked up. Brown Dike and Unit 21 have been producing fair to good fishing for bass, with 10-15 smalls per keeper. From June 15 through July 31 motorless watercraft and boats with battery-powered electric motors are permitted in South Marsh. Fishing should be

Trout fishing is good in the early mornings and late evenings

Wild Horse Reservoir

by NEVADA DEPARTMENT OF WILDLIFE

Rainbow trout, brown trout, tiger trout and wiper were stocked this spring. Trout fishing is good in the early mornings and late evenings, with most catches measuring 12″-18″ and several over 20″.

Bass fishing is good, with fish hanging

Riviera Marina Fishing Report

Colorado River - Laughlin

by RUSTY

This is a great example of a successful catch-and-release fishing experience! Local angler Matt Felder was fishing from shore when he landed an impressive 43-inch striped bass. He had been targeting smaller stripers with anchovies and was catching fish in the 1- to 3-pound range. As I've mentioned before, fishing with anchovies usually produces the smaller stripers, which make excellent table fare. Every now and then,

Stocking has begun at Seeman Pond and fishing has been good

by NEVADA DEPARTMENT OF WILDLIFE

Stocking has begun at Seeman Pond and fishing has been good. Rainbow trout are caught primarily on salmon eggs and power bait on the bottom or under a bobber. Small wet flies and lures are also very effective on the pond. Pink floating power worms on a Carolina rig is pretty hard to beat at Seeman.
