Steady bite on Whiskeytown!

Whiskeytown Lake

Today I fished with the Ewing family from Texas.  Its pretty much fishing the same for me every trip and succes levels depend on how many Kokanee are landed.  Limits are a possibility generally speaking, but if you lose half or more of the Kokanee you hook, you'll most likely have to work hard to get those limits.  Pink was...

Shasta Lake

Today we fished Shasta Lake and once again, one of our father/son clients caught his personal best brown trout making for a memorable day for sure.  It only took him 82 years, but better late than never as the saying goes.  Slower bite, but admittedly, we were looking for a bigger variety of fish anyways.  I think the weather change...

We started heading in around noon because...

Keswick trout fishing!

Sacramento River - Lower

Today we fished Keswick Reservoir and although it was a little on the slow side, we hooked some really great fish!  Mornings have been tough with heavy water releases creating a lot of unfishable water due to the high flows and the presence of floating moss.  As the flows were cut back later in the morning, we managed to fish some of...
