FISHING REPORT 6/30/09
SPECIAL REGULATION WATER OPEN-GENERAL TROUT SEASON OPEN
DON’T FORGET TO PINCH THOSE BARBS!
JUST A REMINDER: On the issue of proper etiquette on our waterways- give space to others who may be fishing or utilizing a particular area that you may want to fish; try not to fish one particular spot for an extended period of time, let others have a chance to fish there to; finally, respect private property boundaries and their patrons who utilize it.
Truckee River:
Trout Creek to Stateline barbless Flies and lures only! Truckee River: Trout Creek to Stateline barbless Flies and lures only! Flows: Truckee215cfs, Hirschdale 525cfs, Farad 600cfs. Flows on the Truckee are being ramped up this week, but the fishing is still good.. The Green Drakes are here and fish are grabbing them readily. Nymph fishing during the daytime has been good. Green drake nymphs, stones, caddis pupa have been working well. Good hatches of PMD’s are occurring early and into the afternoon giving way to the Drakes later.Two hours before sunset there has been a good hatch of Little Yellow Stones(yellow sallies) and small caddis and still some green drakes. Streamer fishing, as tedious as it is, has produced some very nice fish,and with water levels increasing, throwing weighted sculpin patterns early and non-weighted patterns late have been the key to success. Several local fishermen also report good success on dead drift crayfish patterns.This section of wild trout water is being poached on a regular basis. It’s up to you to protect it by calling 1-888-334-2258(DFG Caltip). Release Walters. (Big Trout)!

Little Truckee River:
Barbless Flies and lures only! NO BAIT!!! PLEASE BE CONSIDERATE OF OTHER ANGLERS AND THEIR SPACE! Flow: 86 CFS Special Regs! The flows on the LT have been bumped a little and should make things pick up here a lot. With the weather getting consistently warmer the bugs should start popping. Take a bunch of PMD’s, Midges, Yellow Stones, Green Drakes, Caddis, and some Ants with you because you’re going to need all of them. There’s a strong PMD hatch lately and don’t forget you’ll also see some sporadic Yellow Stone, Green Drake, and Caddis hatches and also consistent Hatch of Calibaetis at the inlet if the winds aren’t gale force.
