Pyramid Lake Fishing Report

Stripers are really hitting right now at Pyramid. Boats are going out, pulling limits on the daily, mostly on bait. There've been a few boils here and there to throw spoons or jerkbaits at, but soaked sardines and anchovies have been doing most of the damage.

Water temps are sitting around 74 degrees, and bass are still very active shallow. Senkos, dropshots, or other finesse soft plastics are doing well near most structure from 5-15 feet. Plenty of 1-2 pound fish, with the occasional 3+.

Oddly enough, a few anglers reported catching trout... crazy this late in the season. They were soaking nightcrawlers for catfish... hooked some nice ones but ended up landing multiple rainbows as well.

Pyramid is in excellent shape right now, and the bite should remain hot until water temps push into the upper 70s, low 80s. This is when fish start pushing deep.

Pyramid is producing some excellent bass and striper action right now. Water temps have pushed right around 70 degrees and fish are starting to school up on bait. Bass guys have been hooking into some nice 3–5 pound fish (even a 9 lber was reported) on glide baits worked around main and secondary points. More consistent action for 1–2 pound fish has been on the finesse stuff... Senkos, dropshots, and Texas-rigged plastic worms.

Stripers have been seen sporadically blowing up on bait around the lake, especially in the morning. Some anglers are throwing walking topwater baits and jerkbaits at these boils, but pulling mostly schoolie-sized fish. The better bite has come from trolling swimbaits or A-rigs around the lake with higher quality fish in the 3–4 pound range being caught.
