Great Fishing at Illipah Reservoir, Nevada

Thanks to Daniel for his recent comments about Fishing at Illipah Reservoir, White Pine County (White Pine Range)...19" inch Rainbows and More...


"I fished Illipah Reservoir last weekend (October 13, 14), and took home my limit of some beautiful rainbows. One measured 19 inches, 3 measured 16 inches, and the remaining 6 were in the 12-14 inch range. Sherbert power bait off the bottom was the bait used." - Daniel

Illiaph Reservoir
At capacity, Illipah covers 70 surface acres to a maximum depth of 50 feet. Rainbow trout, stocked twice annually, and a self-sustaining population of brown trout currently inhabit the reservoir. The 2004 catch rates were 1.41 fish per angler and 0.43 fish per hour, with rainbow trout ranging between 9.1 and 15.1 inches and brown trout averaged 15.5 inches. Good fishing can be found year around, but peaks in the spring and fall. Mid-winter ice fishing (December through February) can also be good. A boat is not essential as many fish are captured from shore.
