June 1st. The water temps are up in the high 50's now. Fish are starting to cruise in really shallow water. There have been some awesome days and some slow days mixed in. The water is coming up fast in conjunction with the run-off coming down the Truckee River. The significance of the water coming up is it is virtually impossible to wade out to the ledges on certain beaches. The Water is simply over the top of your waders. Beaches affected include the Nets, Pelican, Windless, South Beach and Warrior Point etc. The fish should be in shallow enough to fish the flats that will be 4-5 feet deep where we normally would wade through to get to the deeper drop-offs. Unless we get some really big wind storms to change the bottom it will be interesting to see how June plays out.

Fish are being caught on Maholo nymphs and midges in sizes 10-12 fished under an indicator or floater no-cater style. Stripping beetles and wooly worms with a shooting head is also catching plenty of fish. The best days remain to be windy days with or without cloud cover. Mornings and evenings have been the most productive. The Lake closes to Trout fishing on June 30th.
