Sung Cho is a Reno local, an outdoor enthusiast and an angler who spends as much time on the water as possible. When he’s not chasing trout on the Truckee or ladder fishing at Pyramid Lake, he’s exploring the countless hidden streams and lakes in the Sierra Nevada.
For those who live here, we already know Reno Tahoe isn’t just a place — it’s a fishing paradise. Picture the crystal-clear water of Lake Tahoe, the rushing currents of the Truckee River and the expansive mystique of Pyramid Lake. This region offers year-round opportunities to hook everything from feisty rainbow or brown trout to legendary Lahontan cutthroat.
Small streams offer quality brook trout fishing, urban ponds and some portions of the Truckee River east of town allow you to find surfacing carp on those hot summer days, and a plethora of alpine lakes hold high numbers of bass. Whether you’re an avid angler who likes to go out on multiple trips a week or prefer a casual trip every now and then, Reno Tahoe truly has a wide variety of fishing for everyone to enjoy.
