Today Captain Justin fished some of our great return clients on the Sacramento River and as you can see, caught some nice bright King salmon.  We're catching some great Kings now, but the best is yet to come.  We should see a big push of fresh Kings in the Sacramento River any day now.  August and September dates are nearly booked...

Shasta Lake

Looking back its been another great year of fishing on Shasta Lake.  It never really shined like it normally does, but we still caught some pretty impressive trout this year.  Way below average numbers and a pretty slow bite has me looking forward to river salmon season again.  I've hit Shasta really hard the past few years so taking a break...
