Truckee River Fly Fishing Clinic June 7th

By Master Guide Matt Koles

From its origin at Lake Tahoe, through the 106 mile long journey into historic Pyramid Lake in Nevada, the Truckee River is one of the West’s best wild trout waters.  The Truckee River is a classic big water “freestone” trout stream with long runs, pools, and, pocket water. You’ll find deep canyons where sometimes you might not see another angler all day. 

The Truckee River’s self sustaining population of wild rainbow and brown trout do not fool easily. Proper technique and presentation are a must. There are some that say the Truckee River is the most difficult river they have ever fished. Matt Koles has developed some techniques to land these tough trout.
