Great mid-summer flows on the Little Truckee should make for some excellent fishing using both dries and nymphs! The main bugs will PMD’s, Midges and Caddis and having a good selection of all life stages will pay off here. As always using a stealthy approach, light tippet and an appropriate fly selection is important as fish see a lot of angling pressure on this small tailwater. With higher than average flows for this time of year anglers should spread themselves out here to find fish hiding in non-typical runs including riffles, undercuts, and even shallow tail outs when hatches are in full force.
