Truckee River Fishing Report:
Truckee River has been producing some great Fall fish!
Nymphing and streamer tactics have been productive. October Caddis and Baetis mayflies are the most active bugs, and make for a great nymphing combo. Other nymph options include stoneflies (#8-16) and smaller green caddis (#12-16). There have been occasional BWO hatches and a few adult Oct caddis flying around, so it is worth having a few dries in the box. Caddis (#8-10) BWO (#16-20).
Streamer options include Sculpin, Crayfish, and juvenile whitefish patterns. Slow down retrieve speeds as water temps are cool. Trout have been hovering in slacker currents with cooler water temps.
Pyramid Lake:
Pyramid Lake has been giving up a few early season Lahontans. Both sinking and floating line routines have been producing fish. For sinking lines try black, olive, white, or chartreuse wooly worms or similar color beetle patterns. Chironomid and callibaetis patterns have been good choices for nymphs under a floating line.
