Mike Anderson with your On-the-Water report from the Truckee River 1/16/2025. Small dark flies are your friend during the colder months. Some dry flies will happed on overcast calm days, that is also a good time to try a steamer in slow water. At the Pyramid Lake, indicator fishing has been best with most fish caught from 6-10 feet. Lighter colored balanced leeches have seemed to be the ticket as of late
Flies we suggest for Pyramid Lake: Holographic Midge, Tungsten Bead Balanced Leech, Balanced Chub, micro Holographic Midge, Mopcorn Beetle,Pyramid Lake Bugger, Pyramid Lake January Selection
Flies we suggest for the Truckee River: Ready Baetis, BH Squirmy Worm,Hot Butt Nymph, black Perdigon, French Nymph, Psycho Mayfly, Spanish Bullet, Truckee River January Selection
How do we make a great classic even better? We have made some modifications to our Balanced Leech. Listening to staff, guides and customers we have adapted this Pyramid Lake classic pattern to now have a tungsten bead vs brass cone. This increased density holds tighter under an indicator allowing for greater sensitivity and greater hookup percentages. Our newTungsten Bead Balanced Leech is built on the Ahrex 551, #6-60 degree jig is strong and barbless. No need to sweat if you have mashed the barb enough to meet regulations but also this hook is sticky enough not to need a barb.
