Truckee River Fly Fishing Report

Matt Koles, Gilligan’s Guide Service

It has been cold this week on the Truckee River. 8 degrees this morning in the Hirsch. It is going to get warm though through this weekend.  Mother Nature will once again slap us around with high pressure this week into next and daytime temps will be well above normal; which will make for good fishing. With the warm weather we should see some skawala stones later in the week- through Reno and maybe up to Truckee. Blue wings are out and about everyday, march browns should be around later in the month. Nymphing with the above patterns will do the trick, maybe you’ll get lucky and get some on top. We’re starting to get into that time that the dry dropper rigs get really fun to fish. Streamers, yes, of course anytime. Flows are still good for now. Low up top through Glenshire and higher as you go down the river below Boca.
