The fishing has been slow. Not many anglers have been getting out due to weather. I talked with my friend and fellow angler Jason. He told me that he could see the large fish on his graph as they came up to look at his presentation, but would then turn around and go back down. He did get a couple nice macs on his last trip out. Flashers and a live minnow have been the ticket. When you get their mouths open long enough. For more information go to rubyjeancharters.com.
Good luck on your next fishing adventure. If you have a question. a report in our local fishing area or have a photo of your catch, send it to nevada@fishreports.com. Hope to see you on the waters. Good fishin' and tight lines.
