あらすじ・解説
As of November 10th, the fishing scene around Lake Tahoe is transitioning into the fall season, and here’s what you need to know for a successful day on the water.
### Weather and Water Conditions
The weather is crisp with overnight lows in the mid-40s and daytime highs in the mid-50s to low 60s. Water temperatures have dropped significantly, ranging from 52 to 55 degrees Fahrenheit, which is ideal for many of the fish species here. The water clarity remains excellent, making it a great time for both fly fishing and traditional angling.
### Sunrise and Sunset
Sunrise today is at around 6:30 AM, and sunset will be at approximately 4:45 PM. These times are crucial for planning your fishing trips, as many fish are most active during these periods.
### Fish Activity
Fish activity has been good, especially for those targeting trout. Mackinaw (Lake Trout), German Browns, Rainbow Trout, and Kokanee Salmon are the primary species you can expect to catch. Yesterday, anglers reported catching an average of 3-5 fish per rod, with most fish being found at depths of 50 to 75 feet.
### Best Lures and Bait
For trolling, using wedding rings behind a Tahoe Trolling Flasher has been highly effective. These setups are particularly good for catching Kokanee and Mackinaw. If you're into fly fishing, patterns like the Cray Z Emma, Nemec Stone, and Jigged Pheasant Tail have been top producers. Smaller mayflies such as the French Nymph and black Perdigon are also working well.
### Hot Spots
One of the hot spots right now is the deep waters of Lake Tahoe, especially around the areas where you can troll at depths of 200-400 feet. Another good spot is the Truckee River, which continues to fish well as the water flows stabilize. The Nevada side of the Truckee River has been particularly productive, with good fishing conditions and happy fish moving around due to the cooler overnight temperatures.
### Additional Tips
Keep in mind that the streamer bite has been slow lately, likely due to the abundance of molting crayfish, but this is expected to change as water temperatures cool further. For those chasing carp downstream of town, the Squirmy Hybrid and Jigged Bugger have been effective flies.
Overall, Lake Tahoe is offering some excellent fishing opportunities as we move into the fall season, so make sure to take advantage of the cooler weather and active fish.
