Urban Fishing
I went and scouted out a few runs this morning pretty close to downtown Reno. When I go fish on my own I like to fish a lot of nooks and crannys, or water that gets past up by most folks. I'll just drive from spot to spot. It's pretty amazing the quality of a trout fishery so close to such an urban setting. I guess it's like a smaller version of the Bow River that flows through downtown Calgary with it's own great trout fishing. Got these guys today on a #16 Dubbed Out Prince Nymph. These Rainbows are the size of Steelhead, pretty crazy. The fish in the video had broke off a bait dunker at some time, an old rusted eagle claw hook was in his kipe. I took it out for him and let him on his way.

Shit son, thought you were gonna call me. I went mtb shredding today cause I thought you weren't gonna drive down. The fuck happened to our fishing? We haven't gone out together in way too long. Let's change this son!
Nice dude!!! Very, nice... Way to represent Nevada. Winnemucca 4-Life yo!
I'll bring some flowers for you next time. Tulips or roses?
Schmidt's, yah hoser.
You should head up to the Humboldt River and land some cat-fish and train hobo's. I heard the "Roadkill Flies" are on right now...
I think I'll head to Battle Mountain, I just really love it there.
Damn, I miss it.
and btw I lived in Winnemucca for 12 years of my life (yes, thats first grade to 12th grade).
so don't make fun of it.
no, that's a lie. feel free.
but I would say B.M. is a better option if you're looking for a scenic retreat with great night-clubs.
And I heard the "toothless hooker" is an even better pattern than the roadkill...
I think once you get past Sparks the toothless hooker is the only fly you need. I like to tie mine on a heavy wire scud hook.
And you can look for all these great flies at the "Pussy Cat Saloon" in Winnemucca, NV.
Nice blog Gilligan. Leland told me about it, have to hire you for the Truckee sometime.
Come on up...
I'll just generate from place to spot. It's quite incredible the level of quality of the trout fishery so near to this type of an urban setting.
