We are a fly-fishing, catch and release, barbless hook fishery. Chironomid, Damselflies, Mayflies, and some Caddis hatches are the most prevalent insect hatches on the lake. An abundance of fresh water shrimp and leeches provide an ideal feeding environment.
Walker Lake is spring fed, and at 4200’ the ice breaks off around mid-April, with the season opening May 1st. May fishing has proven to be exceptional as the fish erupt out of dormancy with a fierce appetite, If you enjoy spot fishing in the shallows, with the occasional outburst of surface feeding on insect hatches, then we encourage June through mid July and September, October is inviting for two reasons: the onset of cooler temperatures spurs the fish into aggressive feeding frenzies and autumn’s spectacular colors at the Diamond Belle Ranch are truly breathtaking.
