Rainbow Trout
Rainbow trout fishing in the Ely, Nevada, area offers a chance to escape the desert heat and enjoy some classic mountain stream angling. Several creeks and reservoirs in the surrounding mountains are stocked with rainbows, providing a reliable fishery. Spring and early summer, after the snowmelt, are the peak times. The cooler water temperatures and increased flow create ideal conditions for trout activity. Dry fly fishing can be very effective during hatches, but nymphs and small streamers also produce. A practical tip: check with the Nevada Department of Wildlife for the latest stocking schedules and fishing regulations. Many of these streams are small and require a delicate approach. Also, be aware of the altitude, as it can affect your energy levels. Pack plenty of water and take your time hiking to your fishing spots.
