Looking for lakes ponds and rivers in carson city nevada

[MinDoFmejiA]

I moved to carson city nevada recently and need help trying to find body's of water with shore access within about 1 1/2 hour drive. I have had luck finding one spot off of USA parkway that has a few connecting ponds and follows along the trucky river,  but have yet to find anything else and that spot gets fished pretty heavily and regularly to a point where I'm having to rely on finnes and sight fishing bass. You don't need to give me GPS coordinates and specifics as where to cast. I just need a little help getting some kind of information.

I have been there, and fished the Carson River and Washoe Lake. Can't say I caught anything, but it was early season and water was very high everywhere. I heard there are smallmouth in the Carson River(it is small, a stream), and I believe it. I think it is also stocked with brown trout.  If you really want to catch fish, spend the rest of your days fishing lake Tahoe.

Tool maker I used lived in Carson City and had a plane to fly wherever he wants to fish and  the Colorado River lakes to bass fish.
