by KENS SPORTING GOODS STAFF
The Sceirine has fished well this past week as stated above, streamers and nymphs seem to be the best way to go!               

We’ve had a few reports from the river this past week and they’ve all been pretty good!

by KENS SPORTING GOODS STAFF
We’ve had a few reports from the river this past week and they’ve all been pretty good! Down near the “Elbow” there has been some good action with lots of small fish slapping dries but if you want to get into some of the larger fish you need to hit up the Rosachi and/or Sceirine and throw some good sized streamers as well as nymphs. We’ve

Anglers will find ice along the shoreline in the morning

by NEVADA DEPARTMENT OF WILDLIFE
Anglers will find ice along the shoreline in the morning. As the day warms up, the ice opens up, giving anglers the chance to throw spinners or relax with some PowerBait. Bright colors are working the best. Shore fishing access is available along the dam and at the north end.

Fishing opportunities are very limited

by NEVADA DEPARTMENT OF WILDLIFE
The water level has been dropped to facilitate repairs on the dam and will be low until further notice. The shoreline is soft and muddy in many places. Fishing opportunities are very limited.

Anglers have been successful from the shoreline as well boats in their search for double-digit stripers

by NEVADA DEPARTMENT OF WILDLIFE
Anglers have been successful from the shoreline as well boats in their search for double-digit stripers. Jointed swimbaits, many from local lure builders, are catching the fish. Cut anchovies are taking smaller stripers. Rainbow trout are biting along Casino Row and through The Bend. Sunset PowerBait and spinners will get the most bite action.

Anglers are catching striped bass and rainbow trout throughout the Willow Beach area

by NEVADA DEPARTMENT OF WILDLIFE
Anglers are catching striped bass and rainbow trout throughout the Willow Beach area. The federal fish hatchery is stocking the trout near the Willow Beach Fishing Pier at the end of each week. The rainbows tend to school up after being released. Trout tend to take Rooster Tails and night crawlers right after sunrise. Striped bass, some in the double digits, are chasing jointed swimbaits

Stocked rainbow trout are taking a variety of brightly colored PowerBaits or night crawlers

by NEVADA DEPARTMENT OF WILDLIFE
Stocked rainbow trout are taking a variety of brightly colored PowerBaits or night crawlers. On warm afternoons night crawlers are also catching the occasional catfish.  Rainbow trout have been stocked in all fishable ponds in the last few weeks.

The bass bite was tougher for most of the past week as the fish moved deeper

by NEVADA DEPARTMENT OF WILDLIFE
The bass bite was tougher for most of the past week as the fish moved deeper. Stripers are hitting live shad and cut anchovies the most, but three-inch silver swimbaits are a solid backup option. Kastmasters and Jumpin’ Minnows also can be productive for subsurface fish. Anglers are seeing some crappie action with jigs in the Overton Arm.

Back to back days of 20lb plus fish

by PYRAMID FLY CO.
  Day 3 and Al puts a frickn mega in the net! Back to back days of 20lb plus fish by one angler. Almost 50lbs of fish between the 2 trout. Pyramid lake has been kicking out the monsters this season steadily!!!!!

The fishing at Pyramid was outstanding over the last week

by TROUT CREEK OUTFITTERS
The fishing at Pyramid was outstanding over the last week, due in part to the tail end of the storm moving through. As this high pressure system sets in this week, the bite will likely be tough, and anglers will have to get creative to find consistent fishing. When temps hit the low 60’s, the sun is high, and the wind is light, the fish

Flows on the Truckee have stabilized sitting at just under 300 at Glenshire Bridge

by TROUT CREEK OUTFITTERS
Since last week’s storm pushed through, we have seen the flows on the Truckee stabilize, sitting at just under 300 at Glenshire Bridge and at a bit over 500 at the Farad gauge. These are ideal flows for this time of year, and this coupled with a week of weather in the upper 50’s should really switch on the bite. The rain brought with it a
