Pyramid Lake, which is about 30 miles north of Sparks will close to fishing for Lahontan cutthroat trout on Friday, June 30.
That lake has a three month closure, each year, July 1 through Sept. 30.
On October 1, it will re-open for the 2006-2007 cutthroat trout fishing season.
You do not need a Nevada fishing license nor a Nevada Trout Stamp to fish at this lake. However, you need a Pyramid Lake Tribal fishing permit.
