Technical Trout on the Truckee River with Mike Anderson

Our destination are the technical trout waters of the Truckee River with Mike Anderson, head guide at the Reno Fly Shop.  Mike gives us a detailed rundown of the Truckee, along with stories of ornery wild horses, giant browns, and a trout so big it scared the pants off a client.  As a bonus, we dive into the legendary Pyramid Lake—home to monster Lahontan Cutthroat trout and one of the best shots at a 10+ pound trout in the lower 48.
