Pyramid has been fishing very consistently over the last few week

Pyramid Lake

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

We have very high flows on the Truckee river, but it is fishable

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.

More rain and snow for the Truckee River

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.

Pyramid Lake

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.

Pyramid has really kicked into gear over the last few weeks, and a big part of this is due to the continued low-pressure systems in the area.

The bite for both techniques has been pretty even, with the strip bite and indicator bite both having their days and even
