Self imposed Hoot Owl closure & more...


Flows are down and water temperatures are up. Let's join together in protecting the Truckee River trout by participating in a voluntary "hoot owl closure". If you practice catch and release, stay off the water from noon to midnight.

With warm temps, no snow,  a lack of rain and popular fisheries - what can we do to help? Interesting ideas from other western states - Hoot Owl Closure - don't fish between 12 pm and 12 am. Throw in some handling techniques and we have a full educational package!

Besides what is better than a creekside siesta in the shade - perhaps a cool beverage to contemplate the day?
