    SOUTH FORK RESERVOIR TROUT & BASS
    The south end and the shallows are starting to weed up. The bass have finally abandoned all the nests, there were a few malingerers last week, and anglers should be targeting structure.
    Fishing has been fair to good for trout, fair to good for bass, fair for wipers and fair on catfish. The usual worms, PowerBait, gold spinners and light colored lures should work. Fly fishermen should be using damsel fly nymphs or midge larvae patterns fished just off of the weed beds. If those don’t work, switch to dark colored wooly buggers, streamer and crawfish patterns. The bluffs along the northwest side of the lake were producing a few fish as was the south end of the lake below the buoy line.
    Trollers are catching fish fish along the face of the dam and along the old river bed in the middle of the lake. Fishing below the dam is still fairly good, with the lower flows concentrating the fish in the larger pools. Wipers, bass, catfish and trout are all being caught in this area. Below the dam red seems to be the magic color whether fishing with bait, lures or flies.

    Great Places to Fish
    Pyramid Lake closes to fishing from June 30 through September 30, while Walker Lake cutthroat fishing slows down during the summer. However, other northern Nevada lakes will provide solid trout action from the summer through fall, especially when many lakes are full or spilling over. Rye Patch Reservoir provides anglers with some unique fish, "wipers," white/ striped bass hybrids, on jigs, crankbaits or live minnows. Knott Creek Reservoir, northwest of Winnemucca, is a trophy trout lake that produces catch and release fish for trophy trout on nymphs. South Fork Lake produces good smallmouth bass fishing in the summer on plastics. Rainbow Trout averaging 18 inches and some browns are on tap for anglers trolling spinners with downriggers.

    Wildhorse is expected to produce slower action than last year, but yields rainbows averaging 15 inches for anglers fishing flies and spinners from float tubes. Wilson Lake has rainbow trout in the 16 inch range for nightcrawlers on the bottom.

    Fair largemouth bass action is expected in the Ruby Marshes, while lunker brown and rainbows, along with some brook and tiger trout are caught on bait and spinners. The high lakes of the Ruby Mountains are expected to be open in July for brook trout fishing.
