Fish Reports

The Summer heat is gone on the Truckee River. We'll still have our hot days, but its transitioning to Fall. Pine needle season if you know what I mean. It's kinda of an odd time. We really don't have any hatches, trout have been gorging on crayfish, and the streamer fishing ain't good yet.  How do you catch fish then? Well, you don't really need to be out

We look at quite a few factors when forecasting fishing conditions for the week. Flows, water temps, time of year, cloud cover, wind, smoke and water clarity are just a few of the environmental factors that can drastically change how your day of fishing goes. Out of the many variables that we factor in to our report and forecast, we really keep a close eye

The Truckee has continued to see warm water temps this week, and we will likely be in for a few more weeks of this before temps cool off consistently. This does not mean you cannot fish, it means we ask you to be aware of when you’re fishing and limiting you time on the water to the morning hours along certain stretches of the river

The river is continuing to drop, but it should stabilize soon. It is currently at 280 cfs at the Reno gauge. While this might feel low compared to the flows this summer it is actually slightly higher than the median daily flow as can be seen in the graph below. The triangles are showing the median daily for each day.  An upside to the lower flow

Rolling right along through Summer on the Truckee River. Pretty good fishing in the mornings.   Not too much change since last week, except that flows have come down a bit out of Boca. Nice in the mornings, hot in the afternoons. Pretty typical for us. So around 475 cfs, here in Hirschdale, and about 350 cfs, in Reno. We have a lot of water stored in the reservoirs.

Water Conditions With temperatures remaining in the 80s throughout the weekend, water temperatures are relatively the same as last week on the Truckee River. In the upper sections of the Truckee River, the water is warm and not great for fishing. Anglers should focus most of their efforts from Martis Creek to the Stateline because colder water is being released into the river here. Here are
