Water Conditions

The Truckee River is flowing from Lake Tahoe in what we consider to be a medium-cold flow. Anglers will find that the river is wadable in all areas right now. The recent cold weather we received has mad for some great hatches this week. Water temperatures are perfect at about 60 degrees. The tahoe city section is flowing at 332 CFS, glenshire area is at 359 CFS, and the stateline area at 502 CFS.

Tips for the Week

The fish have definitely moved to the faster water for the summer. Anglers tight line nymphing in the fast water are having the most success right now. Heavy point flies with more natural smaller bugs above them are working great. Anglers should focus on the white water coming off of rocks and logs.

Suggested Flies

Jigged TB Twenty Inchers, Slim Jim Jig Olives, Jigged Hares Ear, or a Soft Spot Jig. All of these in a size 12, 14, or 16.
