Fly fishing at Pyramid Lake has been hot following the string of storms

by RENO FLY SHOP

Fly fishing at Pyramid Lake has been hot following the string of storms that hit the region through mid January. With weather conditions shifting now towards sunny days, the effective tactics have shifted a bit. The “midge bite” is anticipated every season around this time and I can tell you it has begun! Midges can be seen hatching around the lake as temperatures increase late

Fly fishing on the Truckee River has improved since the last fishing report as a result of dropping flows

by RENO FLY SHOP

Fly fishing on the Truckee River has improved since the last fishing report as a result of dropping flows. The storms that pounded the region in early January have shifted and made way for sunny days here in the Reno/Tahoe area. As a result, clarity has improved greatly as tributaries to the main river have settled down and cold temps have stopped snow melt. Most days

Pyramid has seen some slower days this week as we see continued sunny skies, and as expected we’ve the bite windows best first thing in the morning, before sun-up, and again in the afternoon from 3-5.

Cold on the Truckee River

by MATT KOLES

Cold on the Truckee River. Pretty much summed up the week. Very cold lows in Truckee, and Reno. Been in the negatives most mornings here in Hirschdale. Just barely warming up to fishable temps.

Topaz has risen about 5 to 8 feet

by DOUG BUSEY

The lake has risen about 5- to 8 feet. The California side still has too much snow on the bank to drive down to. I saw where someone had driven down to the shore on the north end and got stuck in the snow and mud. A couple people had parked up on the road and walked down to shore fish. The Douglas County boat

Pyramid has been fishing very consistently over the last few week

by TROUT CREEK OUTFITTERS

Pyramid has been fishing very consistently over the last few weeks with good reports of daily numbers, although the sizes have been somewhat lacking so far this year as seemingly fewer big fish have shown us thus far. To be fair, when we say the fish have been a bit small, we are still seeing quite a few fish in the 8-12 pound range, but

The Truckee River is in great shape

by MATT KOLES

Welp, that was fun. Pretty much 10 weeks of snow. When we get it, we get it. We got pounded. The Truckee River is in great shape, and will be in great shape this summer. The MJO looks to be in a positive phase for Ca come February. Feb could be a stormy month too. Enjoy the sunshine while it lasts. For now, we have great winter

Truckee River- Hirschdale

by MOUNTAIN HARDWARE & SPORTS

We have very high flows on the Truckee river, but it is fishable. The biggest challenge is finding parking due to the high snow pack. There is some parking down the 80 corridor at Floriston and Farad. Wade carefully if you are going to wade at all in the river. Tips for the Week Indicator nymphing is the best technique right now. The fish are holding in the

January storms amp up the bite at Pyramid Lake

by PYRAMID FLY CO.

Repeated storm systems have these large cutthroat on the chew in a major way!

More rain and snow for the Truckee River

by MATT KOLES

More rain and snow for the Truckee River, laughable at this point. We need/needed it though. Life saving actually. Everything is filling up, all over the state. I thought the Truckee River was going to get pretty big last week. Rain turned to snow, and flows didn’t bump up that much. Flows: The flows are very good all up and down the river right now. About perfect. Everything is

The lake held near 88 percent of capacity

by CHAD BURTON AND CHRIS BORDEN

The lake held near 88 percent of capacity. Please stay in the main channel after launching or you will run aground. Fishing has been fair overall with trout as the best bet. The lake was stocked last Friday, and anglers did well on a variety of baits. Dough baits, minijigs, and night crawlers performed well, and lures also scored good numbers of fish. Striper fishing
