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.

The fly fishing has been a bit spotty out at Pyramid Lake lately, typical winter time type of pattern.

Doug O and I will be holding a Pyramid Lake Clinic at Pyramid Lake in Nevada on January 31st. If you have not heard of Pyramid Lake, or always wanted to know how to approach fishing it, this is the time to do it. This clinic video from last year captures what clinics are like.

The storm of the century my ass. Frustrated to say the least.

Been real tough for me to decide where to go fish lately, Pyramid Lake, or the Truckee River.

Another Truckee River fishing report in the same week, I can get used to this again.

This has been a long time coming. Over two months since I’ve done a fishing report on the Truckee River.

Thanksgiving week ended all right for precip up in our neck of the woods.

Been a while since I actually did a fishing report for the Truckee River. Why? Because the river has been to low to fish, period.

High pressure the last couple days has put a clamp on the bite out at Pyramid Lake.

Fly fishing at Pyramid Lake continues to be solid, in fact if I had to choose, I would be here in the next 2-3 weeks.
