EAST WALKER RIVER            

The East Walker on the California side of the state line is closed until April 27. 2024. The Nevada side of the river is open through the Winter. 

The Nevada side of the EW is still fishing pretty well, the weather has been pretty mild, especially compared to last year, and this is making for some good fishing. Not much going on for streamers and dries but the nymphing is pretty good. Small nymphs as well as stonefly nymphs have been the things to use. Some patterns to try include: copper John, perdigon nymph, pheasant tail, zebra midge, flashback emerger, micro stone, poxyback stone, San Juan worm, squirmy wormy and prince nymph.                  

   

SCEIRINE RANCH       

We haven’t had anyone on the ranch this past week but it should fish very much like the Rosachi section, if you want to reserve some time down there just give us a call.

The pond is frozen for now, we’ll let you know when it looks like it’s gonna thaw!

WEST WALKER RIVER                  

Haven’t heard any news from the West lately, if you’re going to hit that up I would suggest fishing some of the more sunny sections, be very stealthy so as not to spook the fish and try some attractor nymphs like copper johns, perdigons an hare’s ears as well as some small wooly bugger type streamers.                               

 

VIRGINIA LAKES               

Closed until April 27, 2024
