LT Report 17 Years, 7 Months ago  
Beautiful day out. Saw tons and tons of fly fishers hatching. Every where I turned there was someone new!

Fair amount of insects (big and small, even saw a golden stone flutter in a riffle for 2 minutes with no fish eating it).

4 grabs

No kokanee yet.

BTW - Where did all the sage go in the meadow? Seems like its died way back.

Re:LT Report 17 Years, 6 Months ago  
I made it out on Friday when it was raining. The dam parking lot was full then too! But, I could see trout rising from the bluff at the parking lot (in between all the FF'ers).

The size 20 BWO's were on in a big way. Sometimes it seemed that there was a bug between each rain drop on the water. Trout were wallowing, head and tail rises, eating 4 or 5 bugs at a time. I had nothing in the size 20 range and paid the price! A 15' leader down to 7X didn't make them want to eat my size 18 bugs... time to stock up on the small guys! Lovely day to get blanked!

Morgan--IMO you may not land many trout on the LT using 7X tippets...you'll get more grabs though. You got the size of fly right...we're using patterns down to 24's (some of us have 26's in our boxes).

The flows were dropped yesterday down to 18cfs!!! Locals are considering not harassing the fish now, most especailly since the browns may start occupying redds 2-4 weeks hence.

I love talking fly-fishing. So, if you want some info on fly angling my "home waters" in the Truckee area, do not hesitate to contact me off the board; whether by phone (530-587-7333) or e-mail (cyberfly@cyberfly.com). Please be patient relative to a quick reply; most especially during May-October.

My latest crusade is limiting undo fly fishing guide impact on the Little Truckee River. This small venue is being abused my commericial guiding interests. Consequently the fishery is being abused, IMO, most especially by guides to the detriment of the fishery. Moderation is the key in usage.

During the last two seasons I've diplomatically mentioned to many guides that they should coordinate with others guides so that they minimize impact...it has been to no avail. Some entities are more guilty than others; weather independent or "stabled" (outfitter or fly shop). So I've just started taking this public. Any civil suggestions/comments on limiting guide impact would be appreciated.

For my complete bio go to www.cyberlfy.com; then click-on my photo.



NOW FOR THE SPAM!!

Simply, I'm a fly fishing junkie. In 1984, in order to justify my addiction, I started Thy Rod & Staff in Truckee; the longest existing, fly fishing guide service in the Tahoe area and possibly one of the longest in California. I'm an independent; so the "buck stops with me". I tailor trips to the specific desires and skill levels of the client; no "my way or the highway" guiding.

Simply, experience counts folks! 2009 will be my 26th year exclusively as a professional fly fishing guide in Truckee. As long as I enjoying the interaction with other passionate fly anglers and/or those new to the sport; my service will continue into the future. I also "host" fly fishing club outings.

Encouraged by clients & family I started the Reel School of Fly Fishing in 1996. There are scheduled one & two-day clinics through-out the "general" season; entailing a maximum 3-to-1 attendee-to-instructor ratio. Now, since the season if open year-round; I have a scheduled snow-shoe/fly fishing group-outing during March.

Again in 2010 I will be "hosting" two groups at a private lodge in Chilean Patagonia; located 2+hours from Coyhaique, Chile. The lodge accommodates six (6) fly anglers only. It is located in an isolated river valley (40 minute jet-boat ride down river...no roads). From my past experience in this area, I'm guessing it is like Montana was 50-60 years ago....far-far-away from the "real world". Inquire for specifics, I will be going there every year. I've arranged with the lodge for some incredible pricing for two "hosted" weeks in 2010. Also I can arrange other stays and special pricing...contact me.
