http://renoflyfishingoutfitters.comFlows are 41 CfS and have been low like this for a while now. There has been a PMD hatch but it is starting to wain a little. You can't count on it every day for sure. There has been a ton of pressure on the river over the past month and the fish are really smart and spooky. At these flows the Little Truckee is a spot and stalk river that is best approached with less casts and more watching. This time of year the Little Truckee gets a lot of anglers who struggle on the Truckee and end up on the Little Truckee as a result. Indicators that are way too big and a cast after cast approach is the result. Anglers wade through areas that are holding fish and the result is tougher fishing. Your best bet is to try and find one of the larger holes or pools at the upper end of the stream. Hang out and try to spot fish feeding either on or under the surface. Make fewer casts, get a few good drifts and take a break. It usually does not take the fish long to start working again. PMD nymphs and Dries are a must as well as San Juan Worms and tine Midges.
