On this water

No member has posted conditions here lately. The gauge says what the water is doing; an angler who was standing in it says what that felt like.

Post a report

USGS monitoring location 10312100, LAHONTAN RES NR FALLON, NV, 8.0 miles from the centre of Lahontan Reservoir. Provisional data, subject to revision. Values refresh every 30 minutes. Readings describe the reservoir at the gauge; a shallow arm miles upstream will not match them.

About this gauge

Readings come from USGS monitoring location 10312100, LAHONTAN RES NR FALLON, NV, 8.0 miles from the centre of Lahontan Reservoir. It reports storage and reservoir elevation. Values refresh every 30 minutes and are provisional until the agency reviews them. Readings describe the reservoir at the gauge; a shallow arm miles upstream will not match them.

Lahontan Reservoir fishing records

The gauge is half the picture. The other half is what came out of the water: verified catches, the current record, and the anglers holding it.
