July 1st on the River

After we closed the shop today, a few of the staff of the Reno Fly Shop went out to the Truckee to get out there and throw some lines. Although the fishing was slow, the hatch was surprising. Four different species of bugs were spotted popping off the river: Evening Duns, Yellow Sallies, Green Drakes, and Caddis. Once the flows come down a bit more, the dry fly action will be spectacular. Because the fishing was slow, we spent most of our time playing with our new favorite toys-Skagit lines on Switch rods. Come on by the shop and we will help you prepare for the next couple of weeks on the river.
