I've only ever fished the I-80 side (never SR-89)...there is a decent amount of access off of the Glenshire Road, Hirschdale Road, and there are parking areas at the Floriston offramp and the Farad...

My wife and I did the 20 Lakes Basin loop hike in 2015 and I caught what were either Goldens or Golden-Rainbow hybrid trout in Odell Lake using dry flies that were similar to the abundant mosquitos...

Came across this pic I shot from the road about 10 years ago. It's a large pool upstream from El Portal on CA-140. How many can you spot?

A Proposed Hoot Owl Closure on the Truckee River on Vimeo

With the extreme drought and high temps, this is something anglers can voluntarily participate in to protect the resource (I also do my...

Stayed around El Portal last weekend and only fished for a couple of hours on Saturday evening. Lots of activity just below the surface, and managed one rainbow about 12" on a crippled emerger.

Thanks for scouting CC, I'm taking my parents to South Lake Tahoe on Sunday, and will likely take my dad fishing on Monday. Hopefully the west fork isn't too crowded...dad's 80 and I don't want him...

I have a tough time getting more than one anywhere, but especially the Truckee...got this little guy Tuesday morning on a baetis emerger under an indicator. Small, but love the color.

According to the literature I was reading, Hidden Lake is populated by Yellowstone Cutthroats.

Here's a couple...a bull moose, and evening at Cameron Lake

Most of the scenic shots were hazy from the smoke - I did get some other wildlife stuff. I'll try and post some later.

This report might not be of much use, given the NorCal/Nevada bent of the trout fishing reports here, but my wife and I recently returned from a week up at Glacier/Waterton and I tried my best to get...

Was a heck of a fight for sure...about a size 14 Pheasant Tail deep under an indicator, if anyone cares. Thanks for the ID!

Bow...I didn't tape it out before consuming :happy:

The long axis of the mouth of the net is 14" if that helps.

I caught a trout in the East Carson today that had its adipose fin, but had had the top 4-5 rays of its tail clipped off. Any idea of the origins of this fish?

Nice report - I hit the 88 bridge today and managed three little cutts ranging from ~7-10" all on a s16 unweighted pheasant tail under an indicator. I probably missed a dozen other strikes because I...

Thanks, I did give it a shot walking upstream from the SR89 bridge (after negotiating all that terrible traffic from South Lake Tahoe :embarassed:

No luck, unfortunately, trying a variety of flies...

I'm trying to identify the Hope Valley area to do some fly fishing. I did a drive by today before checking in, and it looks like there is quite a bit of private property along the access road? Is the...

I've had some luck in the past throwing spoons from shore at Cave Rock in the morning/evening...how is the access there right now? There's no snow on the ground, is there?

Hit Check 12 again today with frozen sardines caught on the Capitola Wharf last week. On the water by 7a, weeded out some shakers, and had two keepers by 11:30a. Some weather moving in,...

I've gone three times in the last two weeks, all at Check 12. The weather on 4/27 was pretty bad...windy, raining, and I saw a few fish being brought up, but only managed one small striper that was...
