The fishing has been slow. Most anglers have been going deep with downriggers using n F9 Rapala or a dodger followed by a live minnow. Best areas have been Dollar Point, the Tahoe Shelf or along the Camp Richardson area in the rocky areas. 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.
