Brown Trout
If you're chasing brown trout in the West Wendover area, you'll likely be exploring the nearby stretches of the Humboldt River and its tributaries, or potentially venturing into eastern Nevada's high-elevation reservoirs. The browns in this region are known for their wild nature, often requiring anglers to be adaptable in their approach. Spring and fall are prime times to target them, as the water temperatures are more favorable and the fish are actively feeding before and after the harsh summer heat. A key to success here is to focus on areas with good structure, such as fallen logs, undercut banks, and deeper pools. Access to some of the better spots can be a bit challenging, often requiring some hiking, so be prepared to explore. Consider using streamers that imitate local baitfish or large terrestrial patterns during the warmer months. Be sure to check local regulations regarding catch limits and gear restrictions before heading out.
