With more than 200 lakes and reservoirs and upwards of 600 rivers and streams, opportunities to toss a hook in run deep in Nevada. Wide-open spaces give anglers room to breathe and plenty of time to linger along remote backcountry streams, high-desert lakes full of trophy trout, and surprising shoreline access even near bigger cities. And because many of these waters see fewer crowds than in neighboring states, it’s not uncommon to have an entire cove—or canyon—all to yourself.
