Truckee Report

[Jcolin]

Had a very enjoyable 2 day trip fishing the Truckee river this last week. River is in great shape and fished well. This is my favorite time of year to fish it during runoff, actually prefer it higher, up to 2k as long as clarity is good enough. in the high water years we had I didn't even bother putting on waders. It was 900 in town, but clarity was near gin clear so got to fish zebras and small baetis patterns as droppers in addition to the standard rubberlegs and worms. No streamer fish this trip for me. Wind was very intense the first day in the canyon. Also didn't see a single fish rise the whole trip. May have heard one or two. There were some march browns and baetis out. Will try to go back at least once more the next 4-6 weeks.

Happy fishing everyone, this is a great time of year to be standing in a river.
