I checked in with Jason from Ruby Jean Charters today. He reports a decent Mackinaw bite. They were using live minnows behind blades — the fish weren’t hitting any of the lures. The mackinaw action picked up into midday as the sun warmed things up. They also caught a few browns and rainbows up in the shallows off the rocks.

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.
