A foot of snow is expected in Tahoe-Truckee this weekend. Looks like it will even snow on the valley floors near Reno.

Well, we went from t-shirt weather back to freezing your ass off weather in less than 24 hours.

Doug O and I will be holding a Pyramid Lake Clinic at Pyramid Lake in Nevada on Saturday March 14th. This may be the last of our clinics at Pyramid this year.

Much of the same for the Truckee River. Sunny blue bird days and way above average daytime temps.

Not much change since last report. We are experiencing very warm unseasonable temperatures here in the Lake Tahoe-Truckee-Reno area.

Record breaking daytime temps here in the Lake Tahoe-Truckee-Reno area. Honestly, it felt like a typical May type of day on the river yesterday.

Like most of Northern California we got hit pretty good with mostly rain, but some snow, mainly above 8000k here in the Lake Tahoe- Truckee- Reno area this last weekend.

This is when things get interesting. Going into this month the fishing will get better on all the waters I guide on.

I got my first “real fly rod” on a trip to the Upper Sac when I was 13.

On the the Truckee River the same old same old. High pressure off the coast the last 5 weeks has kept conditions calm, stagnant, and balmy for mid-winter in the Tahoe-Truckee-Reno area.

Just got done with switch/ swing week here at GGS on the Truckee River.

Way above average daytime highs here in the Lake Tahoe-Truckee-Reno area.

Milder weather, good fishing again in the Lake Tahoe-Truckee-Reno area.

A little colder this week with the east wind blowing, in the Lake Tahoe-Truckee-Reno area. It has put a bit of a damper on the fishing this week on the Truckee River. That is at least in the sections I’m fishing through.

Finally, I feel as if the Truckee River is coming back into it’s own again. She’s starting to fish like the old river we love and remember.

Not to much going on in the way of weather. If you like nice sunny days in the middle of winter then this is the time to come and fish the Truckee River.

We just thawed out here in the Hirsch, back into the 40’s again today. Looks like we got past the annual New Years cold snap.

Deep cold has settled into the Truckee-Tahoe-Reno area. My body is shocked, I just returned home from Hawaii to find single digits here in the Hirsch.

Slow and low that is the tempo. Got a two hander?  Welp, winter is a great time to use it on the Truckee River.
