At times, fishing Pyramid feels more akin to fishing in the surf than a lake. It’s overwhelming size, the pounding waves, and legendary cutthroat trout give pyramid lake an oceanic feeling. The spin fishermen are chucking hardware from the beach using rods designed for salmon and surf fishing. Fly fishermen are using two-handed rods designed to swing intruders for steelhead in the Pacific Northwest. For a fly fisherman who feels at home in a small mountain stream, this new environment can feel unfamiliar and intimidating at first. Whereas crystal clear skies and mellow winds make for ideal stream fishing, at Pyramid, crashing waves and howling wind are the ideal conditions at Pyramid Lake to bring the big fish up from the depths.
