Fishing has been best up on the north end for mackinaws

by DOUG BUSEY

Fishing has been best up on the north end for mackinaws around the McKinney Bay area or Dollar Point. Keep an eye on your depth finder. There are some sharp ledges up there, but that is what holds the fish in the area. A dodger and a live minnow in 150 to 200 feet of water has been the ticket. Some anglers have been doing well

Topaz Lake Fishing Report

by DOUG BUSEY

I fished the lake this week. Started at 5:30 a.m. and ended at noon. I had plenty of hits and plenty of fish right up to the boat, but that's what we call a short-distance release. All of the fish were suspended in 8 to 15 feet of water. I used my lead line with an F5 Hot Steel pattern and an F7 jointed perch-colored Rapala. These two

Lots of weather changes

by TROUT CREEK OUTFITTERS

Thanks to the abnormally cold weather last week, the Truckee has narrowly avoided any hoot owl restrictions as we head into July, the warm weather in this weeks forecast will likely change things quickly in this respect, so if fishing later in the week, be sure to focus on the mornings and consider bringing a thermometer with you if you want to extend you day

Weathers been really nice

by MATT KOLES

4th of July weekend. Big weekend in Lake Tahoe, and on the Truckee River. Lots of folks in town. Just try to go Safeway in Truckee, I dare you. Weathers been really nice. Not too hot at all. In fact cold in the mornings. That should change a bit this week, and we'll get back to more Summer /hotter weather. That should put trouts back into

Ruby Lake Fishing Report

by NEVADA DEPARTMENT OF WILDLIFE

Fishing is still fair to good in the collection ditch for rainbow trout and tiger trout, with a few brown trout also being picked up. Brown Dike and Unit 21 have been producing fair to good fishing for bass, with 10-15 smalls per keeper. From June 15 through July 31 motorless watercraft and boats with battery-powered electric motors are permitted in South Marsh. Fishing should be

Trout fishing is good in the early mornings and late evenings

Wild Horse Reservoir

by NEVADA DEPARTMENT OF WILDLIFE

Rainbow trout, brown trout, tiger trout and wiper were stocked this spring. Trout fishing is good in the early mornings and late evenings, with most catches measuring 12″-18″ and several over 20″. Nymphs under and indicator and dry fly patterns are preferred with warming temperatures. Spin casters will have luck floating PowerBait or worms just off the bottom. Bass fishing is good, with fish hanging

South Fork Reservoir Fishing Report

South Fork Reservoir

by NEVADA DEPARTMENT OF WILDLIFE

Rainbow trout, brown trout, wiper, channel catfish and bluegill have all been stocked this spring. With the warmer weather, trout action is tapering off by mid-morning. In the early morning, try to match the insects that trout are rising for. Experiment with nymphs under and indicator or switch to your favorite dry fly pattern. As the day warms, fish retreat from the shallows into the

Riviera Marina Fishing Report

Colorado River - Laughlin

by RUSTY

This is a great example of a successful catch-and-release fishing experience! Local angler Matt Felder was fishing from shore when he landed an impressive 43-inch striped bass. He had been targeting smaller stripers with anchovies and was catching fish in the 1- to 3-pound range. As I've mentioned before, fishing with anchovies usually produces the smaller stripers, which make excellent table fare. Every now and then,

Stocking has begun at Seeman Pond and fishing has been good

by NEVADA DEPARTMENT OF WILDLIFE

Stocking has begun at Seeman Pond and fishing has been good. Rainbow trout are caught primarily on salmon eggs and power bait on the bottom or under a bobber. Small wet flies and lures are also very effective on the pond. Pink floating power worms on a Carolina rig is pretty hard to beat at Seeman.

Onion has been fishing really well this summer

Onion Valley Reservoir

by NEVADA DEPARTMENT OF WILDLIFE

Onion has been fishing really well this summer for a few carryover trout and the recently stocked trout. Small spinners and spoons from shore have been great in addition to power bait and crawlers off the bottom. Fly fisherman have done well using large dries early and late in the day. Small streamer flies have been effective when there’s no fish on the surface.

Riviera Marina Fishing Report

Colorado River - Laughlin

by RUSTY

I had to dig this one up since the fishing has slowed down a bit. This was on the billboard at the end of town by the Laughlin Bridge. It's me holding a fish with Allen Cole, who was inducted into the Fishing Hall of Fame for his AC Plug and his outstanding fishing accomplishments. This is one of the larger stripers he landed, weighing

Closing weekend for the fishing season

by MOUNTAIN HARDWARE & SPORTS

Pyramid Lake is currently full, and the boat launch remains open. It is the closing weekend for fishing season at Pyramid Lake. The last day of the season is June 30th. Most anglers are finding the best success from float tubes, kayaks, or boats while fishing depths around 50 feet. Most fish are being caught using Pyramid-style jigs, Sierra Spoons, midges, balanced leeches, and various

Davis Creek Park Pond

by NEVADA DEPARTMENT OF WILDLIFE

The pond has reopened and has been stocked with trout this season. Pink floating power worms fished off the bottom are a favorite at Davis. Small dry flies can be fun fishing early and late in the day.

Marilyn’s Pond has been fishing very well but has also been busy

by NEVADA DEPARTMENT OF WILDLIFE

Marilyn’s Pond has been fishing very well but has also been busy. Mid-week is definitely a better option if you’re looking for a little peace and quiet. Light leaders and tackle has been the key to success at the pond. Stocking will slow down a little as we really heat up but should still fish well through the summer heat.

Stocking continues through the summer at Bail

Baily Fishing Pond

by NEVADA DEPARTMENT OF WILDLIFE

Stocking continues through the summer at Baily and trout fishing should remain good until temps no longer allow trout to be stocked. The Rainbow trout in Baily are caught primarily on salmon eggs and power bait on the bottom or under a bobber. Small wet flies and lures are also very effective on the pond. Fishing has been best for trout early and late in

Fishing has been good at Kinney

James Kinney Pond

by NEVADA DEPARTMENT OF WILDLIFE

Fishing has been good at Kinney. Tiger trout up to 16 inches have been caught recently. Pink floating power worms and night crawlers off the bottom or under a bobber has been working well. Some fish have been on the surface early and late and can be targeted with dry flies.

Great river conditions

by TROUT CREEK OUTFITTERS

Overall, conditions on the river are great. The flows are right at average for this time of year, and so are water temps. As expected for this time of year, we have begun to see some sections of the river near hoot owl levels and with these rising water temps, we encourage anglers to really focus on the morning hours at this point. If fishing

Trolling is the most productive

by ARIZONA GAME & FISH DEPARTMENT

Report courtesy of Rusty at Riviera Marina. Local angler Mike M. recently landed a limit of striped bass. Fishing from an island and using anchovies as bait, he put together an impressive stringer of fish. These smaller-sized stripers are easy to clean and make excellent fish tacos, along with plenty of other great meals. There are many productive spots for striper fishing below Davis Dam on
