BRIDGEPORT AREA WATERS— Pressure has been light, but reports are good from the Nevada Side of the East Walker River which is open to winter fishing. Check with Ken’s Sporting Goods in Bridgeport for the latest conditions and license information.

No reports from the West Walker, but waters are stocked and should be fishing well until the canyon ices up in mid-winter.

Winter waters open to fishing in the Bridgeport area include the West Walker River, Robinson Creek, Green Creek, Virginia Creek, Buckeye Creek, and Little Walker River.

HOT CREEK—Access still good, but storms predicted this week mace access difficult, so check before heading out.  Colder temperatures could help clear weeds and that’s good for drifting nymphs and connecting with wild trout to 18 inches.
