This shop has everything that you need, and everything you'll want, too. Great local fish report, guidance on picking flies for the season, and fantastic service. We caught a few today based on their recommendations.

Awesome experience fly fishing for the first time. Our guide, Nate, did an excellent job showing us the ropes and leading us to some cool locations. He was super helpful throughout the whole trip. I would highly recommend this place if you are looking to fly fish with a guide in Truckee.

Wow! I stopped in to pick up a few flies and was blown away by the hospitality of Miles, the store owner. He was friendly, funny, and professional, and generously shared his fishing knowledge and local insights. The store has everything a fly fisherman needs. I also have to mention that the decor and merchandise were spot on; I wish I could have spent all day there!

Was on a leisurely stroll in downtown Truckee and came across this little treasure of a fly fishing shop. My husband spent both time and money while learning from two very engaging individuals. Their knowledge of fly fishing is fantastic and we can't wait to book a trip. Definitely recommend this shop!

Miles, was very knowledgeable and helpful! He went the extra mile to make sure I had the equipment I needed and even took the time to unravel and refresh my father in law's messy rig when all I asked for was backing line. There is a great selection of flies. The eggs looked so real! But the one that did the trick for me yesterday was the red beaded squirmy wormy. Hooked a brown on my 3rd cast!

This was an absolutely wonderful store. Staff was bright, knowledgeable and eager. Answered all of our questions, gave us great tips on good spots and ideal gear and even taught me a few extra knots. Couldn’t recommend it enough and will certainly be back. Thanks for being wonderful, so rare to find staff like this these days.

They guys here are genuine, helpful, and knowledgeable. Miles gave us some great tips of some new water to cover, and landed the best fish of the trip thanks to his insight. These guys actually give you the time of day, and were more than happy to help select some flies that were very productive. Thank you for all the help. Will be back next time I am in the area.

Trout Creek Outfitters is by far one of the most knowledgeable fly shops in and around Truckee. The shop is well equipped, and when I wanted to redo my set up, I was able get the latest boots and fishpond gear to get me on the water with the flies that work best. The team is friendly, and wants you to have a great time and return again. I highly recommend Trout Creek Outfitters!
