Nevada Fish Reports


Starting to get more bookings with the higher flows and nicer weather

by KENS SPORTING GOODS STAFF
We’ve had a couple clients on the ranch this past week but were unable to get any reports back, that being said I would still say that it’s at least as good as the public section(s) on the ranch and likely the same types of patterns will work there. We are starting to get more bookings with the higher flows and nicer weather so if

The East is still fishing very well on the Nevada side

by KENS SPORTING GOODS STAFF
The East is still fishing very well on the Nevada side, we’re still getting good reports almost daily from down there. The water flows have been fluctuating a bit, which is typical for this time of the year, but it hasn’t seemed to slow the action down at all. Today the river if running at about 76cfs. There are some stoneflies hatching now, depending on

Excellent week to get out to the lake

by TROUT CREEK OUTFITTERS
With the biggest storm of the year pushing through the area, this is an excellent week to get out to the lake. Midges under an indicator have still been out-fishing any other fly or presentation. They will likely continue to do so until the fish migrate back into deeper water some time in late April or early May. We haven’t found the need to go

Despite this storm coming in wet to start, the temps dropped quickly

by TROUT CREEK OUTFITTERS
Despite this storm coming in wet to start, the temps dropped quickly. We only saw a brief increase in flows before they dropped after a few days of sub-freezing air temps. We love seeing this cold front come through, keeping the precipitation on the hill and not in the river allowing it to stay cold for that much longer during the dog days of summer.

Fly fishing on the Truckee River has been pretty good

by MATT KOLES
So far March has been about the coldest month of this Winter. Good snows and more on the way. Pretty stoked for the precip.  Not a great Winter, but not bad either. If we can finish with 90% of average ,that'd be great. Winter is not over, we'll see.  Fly fishing on the Truckee River has been pretty good. I really like March. April and early May

As of 3/13 park officials are reporting thawing conditions and soft edges near the boat ramp

by NEVADA DEPARTMENT OF WILDLIFE
As of 3/13 park officials are reporting thawing conditions and soft edges near the boat ramp. Due to unsafe conditions, they will not be taking measurements unless everything freezes over again. As we enter into spring next week, ice conditions will likely continue to deteriorate. Exercise extreme caution in this late ice fishing season. Trout are being caught in the 16″-22″ range, and perch are measuring

Water temperatures are sitting between 38 and 40 degrees

State Park staff has opened the main boat ramp for the season. Water temperatures are sitting between 38 and 40 degrees. Shoreline anglers are having the best luck with trout hitting orange PowerBait. Below the dam, fly anglers are finding trout in the pools downstream of the spillway.

Fishing Derby Returns to Gardnerville in June

by DOUG BUSEY
Hello fellow anglers.  I have to tell you, this time of year is a little topsy turvy when it comes to getting out and being able to fish. Last week it was 62 degrees and in a tee shirt, this weekend we are back to winter and a jacket.  But I do have some exciting things that do come with this time of year. As many have

The strong winds have been keeping boats off the water

by RUSTY
As for the Lake Mohave fishing report, it's a bit quiet, likely due to the windy weather. The strong winds up there have been keeping boats off the water, as the rough waves can be challenging for smaller vessels. Just a reminder—it's always a good idea to let someone on shore know your plans, including your departure and return times.

We have some river fishing news this week!

by RUSTY
We have some river fishing news this week! Local angler Kenan Guleryuz was fishing from shore in the community park area and landed a striper weighing 7.22 pounds and measuring 27 3/8 inches. These fish are typically around this size this time of year, making it a great catch! Kenan was using a Savage Gear swim bait while fishing from shore. I've also heard that

The Sceirine fished excellent this past week

by KENS SPORTING GOODS STAFF
The Sceirine fished excellent this past week with anglers reporting great days with streamers and nymphs. Most of the anglers we got reports from reported 10 to 15 fish per half day with several in the bunch being in the 20+ range as well as a couple large rainbows that taped around 25”. With the higher flows and slightly warmer weather the fish are very

Midges are fishing the best right now by far

by TROUT CREEK OUTFITTERS
Yet another great week during the best month of what is considered the best year of recent memory. Do we need to say anymore? If you aren’t fishing out here right now, you should be! With a week of stormy days, the bite should be excellent throughout most of the week. Midges are fishing the best right now by far. We have been fishing more 2

Truckee River Fishing Report

by TROUT CREEK OUTFITTERS
While we expect the flows to remain  the same after this incoming storm, we do anticipate the temps to continue to drop with nighttime temps into the teens later this week. The drop in water temperature will make afternoons the best time to get on the water. We are still waiting on the Skwalas to really start up. While nymphing them has been putting some

The fishing continues to be solid at the salty pond

by THE FLY SHOP
The fishing continues to be solid at the salty pond, with good numbers of fish cruising the shorelines. Pick your favorite beach and be ready for an opportunity at a high-teen to 20lber. Cold weather with lows in the mid 20's and highs up near 40 as expected. There have been significantly more big fish caught this season than last. Indicator nymphing with Balanced Leeches

What a difference a storm system makes

What a difference a storm system makes. A bit of cloud cover and wind make a world of difference.

It pays off when you come out for a few days

by PYRAMID FLY CO.
It pays off when you come out for a few days. The first two days we had bluebird weather in the 60s. We caught fish but it was slow. Day 3 the lake showed off a bit in the weather and the fish came out to play.

False Spring, now Winter is back at least for awhile on the Truckee River

by MATT KOLES
False Spring, now Winter is back at least for awhile on the Truckee River.  Good, because we need 2-3 big storm cycles this month. Then I think we'll be set up water wise pretty well for Summer. Meteorological Spring is here. This is a fun time on the Truckee River. I always like Spring as the whole river fishes well. We always get our biggest fish in
