Delta Report 1/4/25
Been out on the Delta breaking in the new engine & dialing in the new rig/boat for 2025! Fishing has been decent, have done about 5 days on the new boat so far. Been averaging 5-12 Stripers up to 8lbs over 5 hrs each day. Found all these fish in the shallow waters using type 3 […]
Trinity River Report 12/12/24
The Trinity is fishing well after the big rain we had a few weeks ago. Beautiful weather over the last week or so, and with the Klamath still reorienting after dam removals, there are plenty of anglers trying their luck. There are fish spread all over from Lewiston down to Pigeon Point. Expect more traffic […]
Feather River Report 12/12/24
There are a few fish hanging around in the Feather and some fresh winter fish pushing in with this new round of precipitation. Low Flow Channel is at 800 cfs and High Flow in the Oroville Wildlife Area is at 1700 cfs and very wadeable. Clarity is chalky green with about 2 to 3 feet […]
Lake Oroville Report 12/6/24
Fishing is fair to good after rising about 30–40 feet. Clarity is fair to good, depending on which fork of the lake you’re fishing. Fish seem to be spread out around areas with moving water or broken rock banks that drop off quickly. Most fish are being caught while fishing the float and fly, water […]
Sacramento River Striped Bass Report 12/6/24
Striper fishing should find a rhythm again now that the river has dropped from a rise of 4,500 cfs to 80,000 cfs, and is now back down to 9000 cfs and still dropping. Clarity is an issue depending on where you fish and which tributaries are upstream. Winter striper fishing is not for the faint […]
Lower Yuba River Report 12/6/24
The egg bite peaked a few weeks back but there are currently still plenty of fish eating eggs. Salmon are still on redds in certain areas and a lot of the trout are concentrated around them. Indicator fishing with eggs and an assortment of caddis/mayflies is still very productive. What also has been awesome is […]
Delta Report 12/1/24
Fall fishing is wrapping up on the California Delta. We had some solid fishing this Fall; it’s fishing of course with some great days, many good days & a few really challenging days. Overall the Fall was a bit of a grind but guests with good attitudes made the the grind & season solid. We […]
Lake Oroville Report 11/12/24
Lake Oroville is fishing fair to good as our fall/winter season gets underway. Wakasagi minnows are schooling in the backs of the forks, and spotted bass are beginning to congregate around these schools. The key to catching fish this time of year is locating the schools of bait, so electronics are crucial to success. Early […]
Trinity River Report 11/12/24
We’ve had some amazing days on the Trinity, and we’re expecting more to come. From turbo-charged, legit half-pounders (16”-18”) cartwheeling and pulling drag, to some large adults (over 22” and up to 30”+) kicking ass and taking names as they throw our rigs back at us on a tail-walking run downriver, the Trinity has been […]
Sacramento River Striped Bass Report 11/12/24
We have officially entered winter striper season with the time change and the first rains of the year. Usually, this means water temperatures drop to what we consider “winter temps,” slowing the fish’s metabolism and shortening the feeding windows during the day. With the fish being more lethargic, the number of calories they need to […]
