Its March and that means its time to start thinking about the Sacramento River Striped bass fishing!  We typically start runing client trips the first week of April, but our key Striper guide is already down in the Colusa area catching Striped bass.  Captain Jeff Brady leads our team with Striper experience and has been fishing in the Colusa stretch...

Shasta Lake

I've been fishing for Shasta Lake browns exclusively the past two weeks and we're finding some nice fish.  Its still early in the season and I expect we'll see some great opportunities for some big browns to be caught daily for the next few months.  Weather patterns and water level changes in Shasta can create some question marks for anglers...
