This is Event #2 in the TTFF Summer Series of fly fishing in the local Tahoe Truckee area. For the latest on this series, check out the latest posts in the TTFF Group Fish Outings & Clinics forum

The Truckee River along Glenshire Road in Truckee is a super easy to access and a great stretch of river to fish for all skill levels. Refer to #31 #32 #33 #34 and #35 on the Truckee River Fishing Access Map for description of this area. The website  https://flyfishingthesierra.com/truckee.htm also provides a great description. We will meetup at the dirt parking area with the access at the big green tree just before Glenshire Road goes uphill between #33 and #34.

The Summer Series is of a number of regular (bi)weekly weekend morning meetups at one of the great local Tahoe Truckee fly fishing spots thru the summer months. Each starts as an early 9am get together, an opportunity to learn a few things, meet a few other members, and fish as long or short as you want. If we are lucky, some of the club’s longer term members who have fished these waters for years might also drop in and share some their wisdom on these classic Tahoe Truckee waters. The series is great or both beginners and advanced fly fishers, young and old, single or couple or family. 

This is a great way to learn a variety of fly fishing skills on both the local rivers and local lakes, be it dry fly fishing, indicator nymphing, euro nymphing, float tubes, pontoons, etc. Not sure about casting or or how to tie a knot, not sure which fly to use when, not sure how to approach a section of river or lake, not sure if lake fishing is for you, this could be a great opportunity to learn and meet other like minded fly fishers. If you are not sure you have the right equipment, let us know as we have a number of rods/lines/flies and tubes/pontoons you can try out.
