Nevada Fish Reports

The ranch is still fishing very well, fly selection will be much the same as on the California side of the river as well. Lots of caddis and midges hatching down there, with lots of nice fish eating both on the surface and on the bottom. Give us a call if you’d like to book a day on the ranch.

Great news for anglers! Ash Canyon Road to Hobart Reservoir in western Nevada is officially open just in time for Nevada's Free Fishing Day! Fishing at Hobart is sure to be excellent this season with the cooler temperatures and abundance of water. Get out there and enjoy what northern Nevada has to offer!

At Pyramid Lake, fish are biting in deep water frequently. Fishing with orange colors in the 70-foot water column seems to be the hot ticket. The shore bite hasn’t been good due to the moss. Pyramid Lake closes on June 30th, so go do some deep-water fishing here while it is good! Pyramid Lake is currently at 100% capacity.

  The Truckee River is in great shape moving into summer. Tons of bugs out on the water. Pick up your flies to represent, caddis, yellow stoneflies, large stoneflies, green drakes and flying ants.

Water Conditions No complaints about the overall conditions on the Truckee River right now. Current flows vary throughout the different sections right now. Near Tahoe City, the flows on the river are much slower than through the town of Truckee. From 89 south to Truckee, the flows almost double in size. With the longer, warmer days ahead, the trout are becoming very active, partly due to

The lake level is the highest it has been in years. Early morning fishing on the south end where the drop off goes east and west has been successful for anglers with blades and a crawler, or pulling a Rapala right off the bottom. But be careful of the willows that are on top of the shoal. Shore anglers have been using salmon peach or

Stocking notice courtesy of the Willow Beach Crew. Approximately 3,030 Rainbow Trout were stocked today. Staff released 1,070 Trout at the Willow Beach fishing pier and the rest were released directly from the hatchery. June 6, 2024

The weather is great, and the fishing is even better. Our local anglers are showcasing the various types of fish found in our area, mostly caught along the shores of the Colorado River below the Davis Dam. In the Rotary Park area, Gerry Ward caught a limit of rainbow trout from a recent stocking from Crowthers Hatchery in Colorado. He was fishing from shore using a

The surface temperatures are already rising to uncomfortable temperatures for the trout and they are starting to stage in deeper water. (perfect). This is the time of year we love. We catch a

Check out June's cathces this weekend with her dad fishing on the Carson River in Dayton, NV.

  Rafting; wet wading; streamers; dry fly fishing; it all seemed to start up this week. The conditions on the main river are currently the best we’ve seen thus far this 2024 season. The flows continue to taper off, while the river is beginning to clear, and the fish are on the chew. We are seeing some excellent quality fish right now, decent numbers and only

The Truckee River has fished increasingly well with water levels dropping. The Truckee River at the Reno Gauge is hovering between 1,000-1,200 CFS. This flow provides a good opportunity for fishing and should lead into a fun summer on the river.  Our summer hatches have begun arriving daily. We are seeing some PMD’s during the daytime starting around 10:00 am. Additionally, Yellow Sally Stoneflies and Caddis

Not too big, but for a lot of folks, hard to manage. Look for soft water trout can get out of current. Anywhere along the edges. Soft flat bank water. They are not in the middle of the river. Weathers perfect, and there’s fish to be caught. Bugs are coming out too. You can nymph with just about anything right now, and they’ll eat it. Drakes, stones,

It's striper season, and they're getting larger. Local angler Mike Jones recently landed a couple of nice-sized stripers near the Parkway Bridge. This fishing spot is becoming more popular and is yielding a few good catches. Mike shared his story of catching a few smaller stripers in the early morning hours, floating along in his boat until he landed these two impressive ones. One of

Tahoe Trophy Trout checked in with us after a busy weekend on Lake Tahoe. Take a look at some of the fish they landed during their time on the water.

The Ranch has been fishing excellent lately, lots of nice fish up to the 22” range have been being caught down there. As with the California side of the river the dries and nymphs are the best way to go on the ranch. If you want to get on the calendar for some time down there just give us a call.    

It has only been a week or so since our last report, but let me tell you that things are looking really good out on the water. Baitfish are starting to bundle and move in from the depths of their winter refuge, and the Cutties are taking notice. We are fully committed to deep water techniques out of the Water Master boats, and we are
