Little Truckee Fly Fishing Report

Jon Baiocchi Reports on 10.10.17

The Little Truckee River is fishing well despite the large numbers of anglers. Last week I counted 33 vehicles from the top lot to the outlet. Lots of pressure, but unique in the realm, you can find your own space - Do not despair. TBS; Tiny Black Shit with a worm for indicator rigs is the top producer. Think small ball whether nymphing, or making dry fly presentations. Lots of aquatics out like the October caddis, bwo’s, Mahogany duns, midges, hoppers, and more caddis like the smaller false October caddis. Water levels are at a good flow at 169 cubes, up from the previous months’ flows and the latest reduction of late to inspect the dam. Show respect, good stream etiquette, ask first, and be a true river steward.
