The river is running at 36 CFS above Hangman's bridge, but there are sections of iced over areas. The river is open to catch and release with artificial lures or flies only with barbless hooks.  The Alpine County Fish and Game Commission just planted 1800 lbs of 1.5 to 6 lb rainbows this week. The Carson River Resort is open all year for cabin rentals along with a general store. A perfect place to do a little warming up and then a little more fishing all day long. The RV and tents camping areas are closed until early spring. For more information stop by the Carson River Resort.


Good luck on your next fishing adventure. If you have a question. a report in our local fishing area or have a photo of your catch, send it to [email protected]. Hope to see you on the waters. Good fishin' and tight lines.
