Lahontan Cutthroat Trout              October 1 – June 30

You can find a variety of fishing weather at Pyramid Lake. Starting in October, you can average 65 – 75 degree highs with 45 – 55 degree lows. Cutthroat Trout fishing can be very enjoyable with the kinds of temperatures. The Cutthroat Trout action can range from fair to very active, as there is an abundance of bait fish (tui-chub) present, both on our fish finder and sometimes visible near the water surface. As the water gets colder (near 40 degrees) during the winter, the Cutthroat have a tendency to not be as deep, as in the warmer water months.

Our Charter Boat is a Custom 24′ Boulton Sea Skiff with a hard top cabin that provides shade during the warm months and can be heated during the cold months. The Sea Skiff is spacious and can accommodate 5 persons comfortably. Through our 38 years of guiding and chartering we have serviced a variety of fishermen and fisherwomen alike, looking for that Trophy Cutthroat catch, fathers and grandfathers connecting with the next generation of angler, families sharing a unique Northern Nevada outing, locals with out of town guests that want a hassle free day of fishing, first timers discovering Pyramid Lake and its wonders, and an occasional trip that required special arrangements for wheelchairs and other challenges.

We proudly provide and use the best quality equipment. The Lowrance HDS12 touch screen DepthFinder helps us locate the trout and stay on top of the fish activity. While the five Cannon Digi-Trol 10TS Downriggers keep us on the fish by following a set depth, or to continually follow the contour of the bottom for us automatically. If the fish are near the surface, then we will employ our two 18′ outriggers to spread the top lines out. To maximize the feel of the catch, we use top of the line fishing rods and reels.

Pyramid Lake fishing calls for a wide variety of fishing tackle, our Charter prefers Apex Lures, but you may also find a Flatfish or Kastmaster at the end of your line. During the right time of the season or for those with patience, jigs could be the lure of choice.
