The lake level is holding, and the fishing has been good to fair. I fished last week with Renee (my better half). We trolled all morning long and the only fish we saw were schools of 30-pound carp swimming around the boat. We changed tactics and headed for the north end of the lake and before I could get one bite, Renee had hooked four rainbows up to 2.5 pounds. We caught and released a few fish that day. Make sure if you are boating, to wear or have a life jacket handy. There will be anglers, jet skiers and water skiers out on the lake. The Douglas County campground will fill up fast and the primitive areas are not as available, due to water level.


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 nevada@fishreports.com. Hope to see you on the waters. Good fishin' and tight lines.
