The road is still open as of today but can close at any time. The fishing has been fair for average rainbows, and the browns are now starting to appear as well. I recommend dressing very warm because the mornings are in the low 20s up there. Inflated night crawlers 18 inches off the bottom have been very successful, as well as Kastmasters or small spinners.



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.
