Catch-up #1: Pyramid Lake

I just looked at the date on my last blog entry: May 13th. Damn.

I can't believe it's June already-- I've been doing site work at night (away from this computer), camping on the weekends, and I spent a week in Asheville N.C.

Now it's time to play catch-up.

The Pyramid Lake season officially closes June 30th but due to a recent bout of 80 degree weather I don't think I will go out there until next season. The last time I was out there it was warm enough for a swim, sandy enough to spend a couple of hours digging Justin's truck out, and fishy enough for me to land 4 fish. They were basically the smallest fish I've caught out there all season except for one twenty-something inch trout I'll post below. I never did catch the big one but I can't wait to try again next season:


Au Revoir.

  1. A very interesting lake. A lot of lore associated with it too. I was only there once, but a lot of good scenery. Interesting fishing platform, portable and light to carry. I hate getting stuck, too.

  2. Love the ladder shot! It's been years, but my first time at Pyramid (years ago) I forgot where I was at took a step back while I had a good fish on. Wound up real wet! They still dragging Woolley Worms over the ledges with full sinkers out that way?

  3. Yeah a lot of guys are using integrated sink tips from what I hear-- I've been using a 30ft 250grain shooting head to drag those woolly buggers and beetles over those ledges.

    a lot of people are bobber... err I mean indicator fishing too :-)

    cheers
