Hints
of El Nino have appeared the last week or so around Truckee. I woke up
yesterday with a dusting of snow in the mountains and rain on the
ground.
Flows have dropped some on the Big T
this week but it’s still very fishable. Keep in mind all fishing is
still in the Canyon section. Like most of the fall so far, temps are
really good and the bugs and fish seem to be responding. No surprise
here, the main bug of the fall is baetis. We’ve been throwing
variations of 16-20s, in darks and olives. Even with that being the
go-to, try rubberlegs, any size caddis or worms as your attractor under
an indicator.
The Little Truckee is producing
as it usually does this year. Flows are clear and stealth is a must. I
would recommend downsizing everything, flies, tippet, indicators.
Baetis, micro caddis, and midges have been the top flies this week.
Sawmill
Lake (private) is still fishing well this fall. If you’re looking to
sight fish some big fish in the shallows, this is the time of year to do
it. We’ve also been getting into more browns than usual over there this
fall.
Browns on both rivers are in full spawn mode, so be careful where you walk and leave those fish to do their thing.
Our guides have quite a few openings still this fall. We can get singles or groups out any day. Check us out at mattheronflyfishing.com
