The fishing has been slow for rainbows and brook trout. Some anglers have caught a couple using salmon eggs or power eggs. My best action has been with a small gold Kastmaster with some smelly juice on it.

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.
