I am a local guide and would be happy to arrange a shuttle for you as I am on the lower Sac quite often myself. Feel free to PM me (or email) for details, or contact me through my web site at...

The fishing on the lower Sac has been very good to excellent especially for larger fish over the last several weeks. It seems the big fat fish are on the bite laltely with fish over 4lbs showing...

While I agree that fishing alone is by far and away the best way to fish this does not really address the etiquette issue. I am lucky to live close to some of the best and most interesting fly...

Yes, they did plant some big (and smaller) triploids this last season in and around Dusnmuir. And yes they were planted with the intension of stimulating the local economy. I am sure it worked to a...

The river is still low and crystal clear; and while that presents some challenges (casting mending and feeding...quietly) there are some really nice fish to be hooked and released. It seems that some...

The lower Sac has dropped again and is down to just over 5000cfs and when the wind stops the catching should increase. This time of year offers low flows, shorter days and hungry trout. Many of the...

I live and fish in Redding and float enough to know where all the ramps are. Contact me and we can talk about it.

Thanks,

I hope you will pardon me if I say that it is knowing when and where to go. The lower sections are RED HOT . I have attached a couple pics of fish that were landed yesterday.

These were not the...

Travel safe. Don't let the threat of rain change your plans. At this time of year rain will only improve the fishing. There are lots of big fish, 15 to 20 inchers, from Gibson road on down to the...

All rods feel different and different rods demand different casting strokes. What does the St Croix NOT do? Is it a distance issue? I have used rods that work fine at 50' or 60' but at 75' they seem...

Depending on where you launch it can be a bit of a jaunt unless you have a fast boat.

I have fished the McLoud and the Squaw and had mixed results. I had the best luck on the McLoud with large...

Everything up north is perfect; cool water and plenty of fish.

Upper and lower Sac are still in good shape and shoul stay that way until winter blow them out.

McCloud is still god to great...

Welcome aboard! Nice pics.... Yes, steelhead it is...

The rivers of the north state can be tremendous as well as tricky. I live in Redding and fish them year round and the real trick is to be on...

Hi Sammy,

All good advice so far. The Ted Fay shop in Dunsmuir will steer you right. I would stick to small nymphs as a rule. I recommend a medium sized (#12 -14) dark bead head stone with a...

The lower Sac is quite the fishery isn't it? It looks like you guys did well and enjoyed yourself and that is what it's all about! Beautiful fish too and doubles! Well done.

Did you see any of the...

I am not sure about them. I have sent you a PM if you are curious about the fishing in the north state.

There is a small heat wave arriving this weekend but the fishing has been good. Let me kow...

Try #16 zug bug on a sslow sinking line where Spring Creek and upper Fall converge in the afternoon or early evening....

...and yes I agree taht the warden has been busy there... is presence was...

Yes that is the lower Sac. We saw swan, river otters, geese (of course) and beaver and numerous fish.... quite a day!

What a fabulous place and it is my front yard.......

Not the biggest fish, but this one seemed to be particularly vibrant and well proportioned. We caught several larger fish that day but this just stood out.

I fished w/ George many years ago on the lower Sac and the Fall also. He has a quiet confidence and skills to envy....

I am sorry you are not feeling well Bill.....

I live, fish and guide in Redding and the fishing has been teriffic for the last couple weeks. The recent thundershowers and cooler weather make it...

This is one of those rare times where the weather conditions and the fishing should match up perfectly.

Fishing the lower Sac in July can be a battle of wills... you against the sun.... for the...

Try the Williamson River between Chiloquin and Agebcy lake (just north of Klamath Falls on hwy 97).

That may be the best place on the west coast to catch a true trophy rainbow.

Have fun!

Hat Creek has been its usual self...a couple of good days then a dead day. There are always good fish to be caught by the stealthy angler. I fished it two days last week and both days saw a 18" fish...
