Outstanding thanks. I will go to Kiene's to get all the material.
Reading over the reports from the last few years, I see Ronald Mcdonald and Red Headlight flies are good ones to throw (in addition to the beloved Bloody Maria which is my favorite). I pounded...
Thanks for the quick response! Going to coat them all now.
Jeff C. I see you are using Hard as Nails to coat your new Firecracker Fly (I already bought all the fly material from Kiene's and can't wait to try them). I was wondering if you coat the Bloody...
I heard there was a person passing out business cards for Lower American River Shuttle. Does anyone have the contact information?
Yeah I was at closer meeting a few years ago. They said because of bikes and lack of staff. Both bogus reasons. They had no status to back up the bike accidents reason. The lack of staff? There...
Anyone know if they have opened up the Day Use area that contains the gravel launch ramp 1 mile up from of the Sunrise Paved Ramp? I know it has been closed for a few years. Wondering if they have...
Good to hear from ya...Yes out tonight on American and it was good from bank or boat...forget them projects for a week and get out!
I was wondering where you went...I was hoping you did not break another rod. I caught one of them 3 lbers (per digital scale) tonight that did your rod in...Just 22", but man was she fat....
Shad bite still going strong...Water Temp is up nicely to 59.5. Shad will spawn very soon.
Lady and I was casting by 5 pm...I started testing a little different technique. I was not even...
Ok wow...how many inches is your biggest fish this season?
Thanks will tie some up!
Oh, I thought the below fly version was an older version. So you are a believer they see UV then! Hmm, if you are I'm going to guess it it true. You are out there everyday and would know...
I...
Thanks for the heads up....I will plan a trip up in the next few weeks!
Thanks all with the responses. Yeah, I had checked the DF&G page and the Alpine Co. Facebook page and saw nothing as you guys did...
With all the fishing pressure up there, I like to go fairly...
Jeff I go out two times a week and see you out there every time! I got one word for ya - Animal.
Anyway, fished with my friend the other night. He killed them on your Bloody Maria. Going to...
Are they still planting the East & West Carson rivers?
I looked on 3 reliable pages with no info/updates...
This report is a week old. I was locked out of my account for a bit. Anyway, I wanted to post:
Fish & Game Wardens floated down from Sailor Bar through all of Sunrise doing full checks. ...
Do you think many of the Shad have started to spawn?
How long do you think the Shad season will last this year. I am guessing into middle of July...
I attended both last year and this years meeting with park staff regarding the closer. They had two officially announced "reasons" for closing the area:
1) The bicycle collisions on the bike...
This warming trend finally pushed the American River up to 58 degrees. The fish are biting a little better as a result. I had about the same success as Jeff C. last night. I got 8 fish up at...
I don't know if we had a slow day or the run is finishing up. We only caught a few. People on the bank only caught a few. Did not see any shad spawn in the late evening.....If I had to guess, the...
Fished Sunrise out of a boat this evening. The boat below us and our boat caught a good amount of fish. The smaller males are hitting now. We did not land as many big females. I did not see a lot...
