Nevada Fish Reports


Pyramid Lake Fishing Report

by TROUT CREEK OUTFITTERS
This has been a strange year for Pyramid Lake as a whole, with some very tough days over the last month or more. The fishery is changing, and while there’s a lot of speculation why, there is no clear answer here. Our best guess is the changeover of the seemingly wiser Pilot Peak strain of Lahonton being stocked more than the Summit strain of years

The Truckee fished excellently last week

by TROUT CREEK OUTFITTERS
The Truckee fished excellently last week with daytime temps reaching the mid 50’s during the middle of the week. This will change starting today as we are slated to get 8-10 feet of snow over the next few days. Yes, you read that right, 8-10 feet. This storm will be a doozy. This would be a great time to stay inside and tie up a

Topaz Lake Fishing Report

by DOUG BUSEY
The lake is now within a few feet of being full. The Douglas County Park launch facility is open, with a little caution. The east dock is under water about a foot.

17.72 lb. Striper

by RUSTY
Up on Lake Mohave, the fishing is holding up well for stripers. Our local angler, Raul Gonzalez, is showing off a superb catch he landed while fishing or trolling near the area just above the power lines. He was using a swimbait to catch these fish. The larger one weighed in at 17.72 pounds and measured 35 and 1/4 inches. I've been noticing that watching

The East Walker on the California side of the state line is closed until April 27. 2024. The Nevada side of the river is open through the Winter.  The Nevada side of the EW is still fishing pretty well, the weather has been pretty mild, especially compared to last year, and this is making for some good fishing. Not much going on for streamers and dries

As of now, the stormier days are definitely the best days to be fishing out here

by TROUT CREEK OUTFITTERS
While Pyramid continues to see better and better days with regularity, we are still a few weeks out from those spring pre-spawn conditions we all look forward to every year. As of now, the stormier days are definitely the best days to be fishing out here, and the sunny, calm days are mostly still a grind. With that said, this weekend is going to be

Truckee River Fishing Report

by TROUT CREEK OUTFITTERS
This week’s rain event made the Truckee come up 100-200 CFS on various sections of the river, and it has since stabilized. While it did go “chocolate milk” for a day, the proceeding days where epic as water cleared and flows dropped. One of the beautiful things about this river system is how fast it can drop back into shape, and often once it does,

Rainbow trout are the catch of the week

by RUSTY
This week, rainbow trout are the catch of the week, freshly stocked at Rotary Park. Gerry Ward, a local angler, has already hit his limit of 5 trout.

Both locals and visitors are reporting success with

Pyramid continues to get better and better with each passing storm

by TROUT CREEK OUTFITTERS
Pyramid continues to get better and better with each passing storm. The sunny, calm days are still proving to be far slower than the days with cloud cover and wind present, so choose your days to fish here wisely. We are now creeping up towards the prime months for fishing out here, and along with the improved bite we will see a large increase in

The rainbows in the Truckee have begun to show their spawning colors this week, taking on deep, vibrant hues of pink, olive, purple and red. They are working hard at putting on weight in anticipation of the next few months, and the catch rate of large ‘bows has been great recently. We’ve been having great luck along most stretches of the river from Glenshire Drive,
