http://www.virginialakesresort.comWeatherwise the week was great for fishing until
Friday, when the first dusting of snow hit the
Sierra Crest with about 6 inches, and another 9
is expected tonight. It's snowing right now and
the sun is shining so it is not sticking to the
ground. Trout love this kind of weather, and
they don't mind the wind. It's breezy but not
enough to stop the watercraft or shore anglers.
Big Fish: John McIntosh of Gardnerville caught a
nice 5lb and a 3lb Alpers on a silver prism
Kastmaster, Greg Tait of San Juan Capistrano
caught 2 Alpers a 2lb 3oz and a 6lb 1oz on a Hot
Shot, and his Dad Dave of Mar Vista caught a 2lb
2oz Alpers on a red/gold Thomas Bouyant.
Worms, salmon eggs and marshmallows have been
doing well along with pink power worms, grubs, meal worms and crickets.
Lures doing great are Hot Shots, Kastmasters, and Bouyants.
Flies bringing up fish are olive, dark rust,
brown, and Black wooly buggers, light grey
sowbug, for fly rodders. Bubble anglers are
doing well on Grey Hackle Peacock, Black Gnat red
tail, Adams female, partridge and orange and partridge and yellow.
DFG was not able to stock this past week due to
an emergency at the hatchery but we are still
getting fish. See you on the water

We had another great week of warm fishing weather, which probably contributes to the numbers of anglers on and around the water. Night Crawlers are still holding at number one with pink power worms, then salmon eggs coming around the stretch. Some......

Fishing is still going strong in the high country, even up to the last Frog Lake. A small weather system went through and dropped a bit of rain on Tuesday, and that was the last of the system. We are expecting more rain, but doubt if that will happen as the am and pm temperatures are not low enough for snow, and wind is needed to drop the temp to for snow to happen. It's only fall and still early, no worries yet! Night......
