The best fishing on the Truckee River is around Glenshire drive

by MOUNTAIN HARDWARE & SPORTS
The best fishing on the Truckee River is around Glenshire drive. Anglers should fish their winter setup. Some recommended flies for the Truckee River are san juan worms, small blue winged olives, small dry flies, or small midges size 18-20. Some other areas to try on the river are near Floriston and Farad. Use the same small flies, with light tippet and an indicator. FLOWS: Tahoe City

The calm before the storm on the Truckee River

by MATT KOLES
The calm before the storm on the Truckee River. It just takes one big storm cycle for us to get back in the drivers seat. Things were pretty bleak, snow wise, back in November. Mother Nature saved us back in October, and she looks to do it again next week. A little cold duster yesterday, and now cold temps and definitely feeling like a Truckee December.

Put the Pigs in the Pen! – Pyramid Lake Report Early Dec 2021

by BEARFISH ALLIANCE STAFF
 It’s still a challenge, but well worth the effort out at the salty pond. That switch hasn’t flipped yet, but you will find cruisers popping into the strike zone from time to time. Seems like the early mornings and late afternoons are best, however you will find a random grab or two throughout the day. We favor chasing them with streamers (The Yak seems to

With the low flows it’s best to try small midge and nymph patterns

by KENS SPORTING GOODS STAFF
The California side of the EW is closed until April 30, 2022 I haven’t heard much from the Nevada side of the EW, just 1 or 2 reports that were just ok. This time of the year with the low flows it’s best to try small midge and nymph patterns and focus on the deeper pools and runs where there will be more fish hanging out.
