Good Fishing

by NEVADA DEPARTMENT OF WILDLIFE
According to the ranger at Spring Valley State Park, fishing has been good over the past week and the ice still remains safe to walk on for now. Early run-off has filled the lake to capacity. Rainbows in the 12- to 14-inch range are taking mealworms and night crawlers combined with a bit of mini-marshmallow. Browns in the 12- to 14-inch range also

Ice is unsafe

by NEVADA DEPARTMENT OF WILDLIFE
Due to the start of run-off, the water levels are rising in the lake. Due to the rising water level, warming temperatures and windy conditions, the ice has become very unsafe.

Planters Biting

by NEVADA DEPARTMENT OF WILDLIFE
The warm weather has made fishing good from both shore and boat. Planter rainbows have been moving down stream with striped bass right behind them. Be careful in the marshy areas as lower water levels are creating muddy shorelines. Bait options are night crawlers for the trout and anchovies for the stripers. Both have been catching fish.

Lake Mohave Update

by NEVADA DEPARTMENT OF WILDLIFE
Fishing reports are slow for Mohave. Top-water lures are the top bait with anchovies being a typical second option. Good top-water lures for Mohave are A.C. Plugs in a rainbow trout pattern or the black and gold colorations. Action should improve as water temperatures increase.

Fishermen have been using artificial baits with little success. The most successful fishermen were using jigs or jigging spoons at depths of 80-130 feet in the Boulder Beach area and near the mouth of Vegas Wash. Black bass fishing has been slow as well, but

Truckee Fishing Good

by MATT KOLES
Well shit, another dry month in the middle of winter. Good for fishing, bad for our snowpack. Good news is we are still at around 100% of average. If we can get a few feet of fresh this week, that’ll put a band aid on February. We still will have more water this summer in the Truckee RIver than the last 2. Boca is filing up

Larger fish but not big numbers

by TAHOE FLY FISHING STAFF
Pyramid Lake has been producing some good action for larger fish but not yet the numbers game that we will see in the Spring. Chironomids under an indicator are doing best with stripping a close second! The fish are now in the shallows as the storms mix it up, look for windy days or rain to turn the bite on. We carry a good assortment
