Rainbow Trout
Rainbow trout fishing near Lovelock presents a unique opportunity in the Nevada desert. While not a renowned trout destination, Rye Patch Reservoir, north of Lovelock, is stocked with rainbow trout, offering a chance to catch them. The best time to target trout is during the cooler months of spring and fall when water temperatures are more favorable. Trolling with small spoons or spinners can be effective, as can fishing from shore with bait such as PowerBait or worms near the dam or inlet areas. Given the reservoir's primary role for irrigation, water levels can fluctuate significantly, impacting trout habitat and fishing success. The trout population isn't self-sustaining, so rely on stocking efforts. For a different experience, the Humboldt River above the reservoir can hold some trout as well, although access can be challenging. Check the Nevada Department of Wildlife stocking reports before planning your trip.
