HAPPY HOLIDAYS from the Truckee and Bigfly!
Quick update....Edited 12-21-12
3+ feet of snow has changed the game.
Parking is an issue.
Be aware, parking on the road way in winter is a tow-able offense.
Shop around though, the pullouts seem to appear.
Glennshire is bermed in and possibly done till spring.
Time for snow shoes near town.
Better access down in the canyon, and lower elevation.
Some shore ice in places, looks good mostly...
Looks like the Arctic storm track has arrived, and will run into next week.
Bring everything you need for a night on the road, in case somebody else....messes up....
Seen lots of "really good drivers" in the ditch this week.
Taker slow pardners......
River is Green/clear, temp 38 deg.....
Returned to a nice flow..
Find the weather windows.
Time for 2 layers of socks, and some fleece too.
Bring fingerless gloves and a fleece hat, and jacket for mornings.
Always bring a wind breaker........
And maybe an extra change of clothes... it can be slippery...
The last few days have been blustery..
Don't be afraid of weather.....Bring clothes! (No cotton...)
Some issues with line freezing to guides. Bring your Dave's paste!!!
Otherwise, it's still little bugs.
Actually saw some risers though, stay awake....
Midges, and Baetis mostly, drown them......
Golden stone nymphs are in the net.
Along with SJ worms, and I actually saw a cray today....
One drift'em in pools/eddies with light weight.
It's a patience and persistence time of year.
Takes are subtle......
