Carpy,

If you get a break in the weather you could try Indian Creek Reservoir down by Markleeville, or maybe the East Carson if the flows are not too high. I have not checked the flows recently. The USGS has a gauge at the confluence of Markleeville Creek and the East Carson.

Re:nevermind 15 Years, 3 Months ago  
Carpy----You may have the right idea. It is snowing in Truckee right now. South shore[generally will experience the same weather. We received a good snowfall Tuesday-Wednesday. Access is the main caveat.

Prior to the snows we were experiencing some decent "early season" fishing. BWO's are emerging on both the BT and LT. They should be a factor during the next 4-5 weeks, wet or dry. I've received reports of Skwalas in the "canyon" and in Nevada....think nymphs. Early season streamer fishing is always a good tactic; it produces some good-sized trout. Thus far run-off is not an issue.

Personally I'm of the opinion that the LT should be closed in winter; it is too small of a fishery and the trout need a break. They are fished over at least 10 months a year. Also, and [u]this has ruffled some feathers[/u], commercial guiding should be restricted; either as to x-amount of "no guide days" per month or limiting the number of guides/clients allowed per day per USFS permit. Simply there is too much impact on the fishery and IMO guides are an issue.

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.

Hit the Tahoe Keys Marina for bass from your float tube. If you are serious, drop by Tahoe Fly Fishing for the scoop. Derek Rust just did a program for the Tracy club on bass fishing in the lake and the photos of fish were unbelievable. If you do try it, let us know how you do. It might be early in the season. I'd be curious about the water temps. The 3-4 feet from the fire might best suited for you.

Hope this helps.

WOW!!! 15 Years, 3 Months ago  
Thanks of all of the responses! all are very tempting.

I've decided that I rather spend time with
GD #1. Besides, it's past my 2 hour limit for fishing.
