3/30---"The 'general’ trout season is here so explore. The BT and LT have been pounded up to now (close the LT for the winter!!)…so fresher, dumber fish can be found in other local waters…
Two considerations right now;
water-temps and flows. I’m opting for the former right now, although fishable
flows are to be considered (water-Master is trading-off such with down-ramps of
Prosser inflow)…a reason why I’ve been concentrating on the water above the
Glenshire bridge to Tahoe City; warmer flow in the afternoon and friendlier flows.
Don’t forget this stretch along
state route #89 having just opened last week-end and it hasn’t been decimated by armies
of “stringer-oriented” anglers...yet. There are untouched fish there now…a beautifully-colored
14”-15” ate a SJ worm today…mid-afternoon. In thin water a small fish was
hooked via a dry/dropper rig...a good sign. Nevertheless, hope for a few more
upticks in water temps on the BT…"
Pancho and BT trout
4/1---“…indi-fishing, streamers
and indi-less “tight-lining” are your best options right now on the
local featured “big” waters…Remember that all Truckee area waters are open now
with the exception of the inflow waters into Lake Tahoe; so it is a great idea
to explore the smaller waters now…lake inlets produce some quality trout also…Martis?...haven’t
been there…hmmm.”4/2---"Fishing has actually been a bit more difficult the last 9-10 days. The flows on the LT has just been raised to 340 cfs…lots of lead. The BT is still a bit too cool for my liking at the low 50’s…I’d like to see a few more degrees higher.
Indicator nymphing is still the
most effective technique… few surface feeders…small creeks dries are a play and
worth exploring right now…I’ll find out the latter during the next two days
since I’ll be “scouting” them and not guiding.
