Truckee River Conditions Update

Pyramid Lake Fishing Report

by TROUT CREEK OUTFITTERS
The overcast days have improved the fishing on the lake, with fish a bit less on edge and more willing to chase streamers.

As we reach the height of the spawn at Pyramid Lake, expect to see a lot of fish, but only catch a few.
