Honest question, What time of year do you have to go small on midges at pyramid?

That’s a true statement about pyramid. The northern part has produced. And fish were caught early morning and late afternoon. With conventional gear flashy watermelon and pearl white was the best colors. We had a hen full of eggs already.

Man I love these on the water reports. Thank you

Are those weighted indicators or just foam bodies?

Wonder if conventional will produce? 🤔

When you say "heavy mono for the. butt section, what lb. test do you use.... 20lb ?, 25lb ? 30lb ?...... Thanks for the video...

This would be a good time to try wishhhhhhhhhhhhhswishshhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Shwoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

How much weight are you adding in order to get your leader to slide through the indicator after a cast? I’ve tried this same set-up many times, and even with about 1/16 oz of weight, in addition to the weighted flies, its till not enough to overcome the friction and allow the flies to sink deep enough for the indicator to reach the bobber stops. The only way I’ve gotten it to work is casting close enough to be able to high-stick all the line off of the water and slowly lower the rod tip to feed the line through the indicator. Tried it with jaydacators and a few others. I actually still really like fishing it that way, because often times, when fishing that deep, it’s most effective to have the indicator right next to the boat. However, at that point, I might as well just do a long-line dangle with a sinking line. Just curious to hear if others are actually able to get this method to work with a full-length cast.

haven’t been catching a thing out the truckee not even bites I go to mogul at least twice a week this past month been getting skunked every time I go

how wide it covers the bottom as it shows ? if river 10 metre width , how see this garmin striker width ?

Digging the shirt!

Does it need cell service to work? I have TMobile and TMobile doesn't work out there.

Thanks Mike got an opportunity to fish with you. Couple of weeks back. You are the best guide I have ever worked with. If you all want to have a great experience and learn how to fish pyramid the right way look up Mike. Book a trip it’s worth it.

Thanks Mike and Reno Fly Shop! Is there a water temp gauge website that you all recommend?

Would reels work too or just fly fishing right now?

I do not think attaching the legs with chenille saved you any time. In fact, it looked slow and painful.

What type of hook and size would you recommend? thx!

Stay safe. Love ya

I fished there for 4 days starting Thursday 1/18. I haven't fish at all with the indicator yet, but did well stripping buggers and Beatles. The first two days were slow but then day 3 and 4 the bite really kicked off strong! Would like to learn more about the indicator methods here and 2 hand casting with the indicator. About how far do you need to be able to cast your indicator rig to be successful and would it be tough with a single hand 9'6" rod? Thanks

What about Pyramid?

What size midges?

If using this leader fishing unweighted woolly bugger and booby/tadpole, which one goes on the tag and which one would be your terminal fly? Thanks

Picked up a handful last time I was at the shop. Stoked one of the guys recommended it because it's been super productive on the Feather.

"PromoSM"

Thank you Mike for always keeping us updated greatly appreciate it.

That’s good news. I’ll be out there 26-28th hopefully the bite is better

Do you need a full cage reel for this?

Thanks for the info. You don’t think floating line is recommended right now? I’ll be going later October.

Wow what a wealth of information, did not know 30' was an atmosphere for fish. Keep it up!!

Great carp/warm water pattern as well.

Nice to see water in the river

Simple. Elegant tie. Thank you 🙏

Is there a late June report??

Beach cruisers are everywhere right now. I landed a chui and a summit with a midnight cowboy balanced leech.

Is it windy there?

Do you find this rig roll casts well? I usually use a tapered leader but I might try this next time I'm out.

We can’t even to pyramid if you live in the west side of the sierras. Is there a difference from Rio’s switch chucker?

Line is legit! Got it a few months back and it’s killer🤙🏽

Boober Chukkar

Can you do a side x side comparison with the switch chucker, and explain why I would choose one over the other. Thank You

FishOn!

Why so many bobber stoppers?

I'm not sure why you even bothered posting this video as it is almost unintelligible. Too bad because I really like your reports in general. Hope you can find a way to reduce the wind noise before your next posting.

I can't hear you!

What did he say?

Hey this guy sold me my reel!

WHOA!! Got to get a wind sock on that microphone. Great visual but words cannot be heard over the top of the wind noise. These reports are usually very timely and accurate though. A for effort!

Great report Mike, thank you
