Will it snow again?

by MATT KOLES

Will it snow again? Hopefully soon for the Truckee River watershed. Very cold at night, and warm afternoons. Flows are good and everything right now, but I get environmental anxiety. That's a real thing. For now, typical Winter stuff. Smaller stuff is you're nymphing. You can jig streamers on the euro rig, or fish the big stuff and strip. Usually the big stuff ain't so great in

It is a beautiful morning here on Wildhorse Reservoir and we have some great news!

Wild Horse Reservoir

by WILD HORSE STATE RECREATION AREA

It is a beautiful morning here on Wildhorse Reservoir and we have some great news! The area that had open water last week now has nice clear ice! Of the five holes we drilled at random, when entering from the boat ramp, all five holes were consistently 5 inches of the good clear ice! This means it is safe to walk on and you can

Fishing out here has been tough

by TROUT CREEK OUTFITTERS

With the high-pressure days as of late, fishing out here has been tough. But there are still some good bite windows to be had. These are mostly in the early morning hours, at or just after sunup. This is a great time to really focus on either fishing midges under the indo or put in some serious time stripping. Stripping will be a particularly good

The river continues to fish well

by TROUT CREEK OUTFITTERS

The river continues to fish well along most sections. The Glenshire area has continued to kick out some great dry fly fishing most days and they seem to be keyed in on midges primarily. Midge cluster patterns such as a Griffith’s Gnat have been productive as well as individual midge patterns like a para midge or fowler’s midge. Further downstream, the name of the game would

OTW | Truckee River and Pyramid Lake | mid January 2025

by RENO FLY SHOP

Mike Anderson with your On-the-Water report from the Truckee River 1/16/2025. Small dark flies are your friend during the colder months. Some dry flies will happed on overcast calm days, that is also a good time to try a steamer in slow water. At the Pyramid Lake, indicator fishing has been best with most fish caught from 6-10 feet. Lighter colored balanced leeches have seemed

Ice is beginning to form on the open water areas

Wild Horse Reservoir

by WILD HORSE STATE RECREATION AREA

Ice is beginning to form on the open water areas! We are going to give it a few more days before trying to get measurements, but it has been getting thicker each night for the past few nights!

Ice thickness remains incredibly variable throughout the reservoir

Wild Horse Reservoir

by NEVADA DEPARTMENT OF WILDLIFE

Ice thickness remains incredibly variable throughout the reservoir. Recent overnight lows dipping into the negatives have improved ice growth in some areas, while other areas still have a ways to go due to above average daytime temps. The shoreline near the boat ramp within Wild Horse State Recreation Area is just beginning to ice over and remains unsafe for access at this time. Anglers are

The reservoir is around 90 percent covered with thin ice

South Fork Reservoir

by NEVADA DEPARTMENT OF WILDLIFE

The reservoir is ~90% covered with thin ice. Some open water remains along the shorelines of Jet Ski Beach and Coyote Cove as the day warms and skim ice melts off. These conditions are NOT safe for ice fishing. Shoreline anglers have been reeling in brown trout and rainbow trout, with brown trout catch rates having gone up significantly since the fall stockings. Spinning lures

South Fork Ice Update

South Fork Reservoir

by ELKO FLY SHOP

This week's fishing report said South Fork was wide open for shore fishing. The past few nights have frozen much of the lake and first thing this morning there was little to no shore fishing until late morning when some water opened up along Jet Ski Beach. With the forecast cold temperatures for this weekend, expect limited if any open water at South Fork. Maybe

The lake level is slowly rising at about 3-6 inches a week

by DOUG BUSEY

The lake level is slowly rising at about 3-6 inches a week. The Douglas County boat ramp is open and has only the middle dock in right now. Use a little patience and courtesy launching and coming back in. Shore angling was slow this last week. Most anglers were fishing the south end with powerbait or night crawlers. Trollers were using flashers and worms or

Wildhorse update

Wild Horse Reservoir

by FISH REPORTS STAFF

Wildhorse update: The ice was 8-12” thick where we were at. Stay clear of the main boat ramp and a few points where there are still pockets of open water. Perch are starting to make a comeback and holding in deeper water. Trout are hanging out in shallow water anywhere from 5-10”.

Riviera Marina Fishing Report

Colorado River - Laughlin

by RUSTY

Local angler Dale Scott recently landed a nice striper at Rotary Park, along with a rainbow trout, while fishing from shore using anchovies. It's not very common, but our local rainbow trout will bite on anchovies now and then. The striper weighed 4.82 pounds and measured 23 ¾ inches. So far, Community Park is holding up well despite the winds. Anglers are still able to catch

There are still pockets of open water throughout the reservoir

Wild Horse Reservoir

by NEVADA DEPARTMENT OF WILDLIFE

There are still pockets of open water throughout the reservoir, and existing ice should be considered unsafe at this time. There is limited shoreline access near the boat ramp and in the coves.

East Walker River Report

East Walker River (NV)

by KENS SPORTING GOODS STAFF

Haven’t really talked to anyone who’s been hitting up the Rosachi, or the Sceirine lately, so I don’t really have much to report. If you’re heading down there I would expect the best time of the day to be from about 10am to 3pm or so because of the colder temperatures. The last couple anglers I did talk to had the best luck with streamers

Cold nights, warm afternoons on the Truckee River

by MATT KOLES

Cold nights, warm afternoons on the Truckee River. Upper teens in Truckee at night, 40's in the afternoons. Lets look at that.. When it's really cold at night, that's really going to lower the water temps. That will put the fish in the very slow water, frog water as we like to say. You will have to poke them in the nose with your flies. I would

Pyramid Lake Fishing Report

by RENO FLY SHOP

As is true with most January’s, indicator fishing has been the most effective way to target the LCT. The trout have been moving a lot recently making them a little harder to pin down, and they may not be where you have been fishing the last few weeks, at least not in great numbers. I’ve been targeting beaches with a drop off around 11-14 feet,

The Truckee River has fished well in the last few weeks

by RENO FLY SHOP

The Truckee River has fished well in the last few weeks as flows have stabilized after a storm in late December. With clear skies and moderate weather in the forecast, we expect to see good fishing conditions continue. The annual hatch of Blue Winged Olives should begin any day now as we patiently wait. Nymph fishing has been productive throughout the river with many anglers focusing
