Truckee River Fly Fishing Report 6/4/15
The
rain last week gave the Truckee a much needed flush of fresh water
through the system and the fish and bugs seemed to appreciate it. The
storms did pump some color in the river from a few different sources but
that’s a non issue now.
We’re seeing all
kinds of bugs at this point and summer hatches will be in full swing
soon. There are still a few baetis around but they are pretty much
ending, PMDs are out, green drakes are starting, caddis in several sizes
are getting eaten daily and big stonefly attractors have been sticking
fish.
We had two stellar days of carpenter ant
fishing that ended as quickly as it started. They aren’t done yet so
make sure you have some big terrestrials with you, they will pop again
as it gets warmer.
Our fly fishing school
ponds are still firing and we’re getting in to fish in every class. If
you’re a beginner or intermediate angler, be sure to check out our
extensive list of class options.
Sawmill Lake
(Private)- Sawmill is getting better by the day as it gets warmer in
Truckee. We’re getting fish on all the normal bugs callibaetis, damsels,
ants and midges. Bigger fish than normal are being caught this year and
fish in the 3-6lb class are ‘almost’ the norm!
Our June is extremely full but we always have guides available to get you on the water. Contact any time at mattheronflyfishing@gmail.com or at 518-225-6587 to book.
