Lower A?

Lampreys are Satan’s spawn

Nah, native lampreys are cool; about half the species aren't even parasitic. Politicians are Satan's spawn! ALL of them are spineless, blood-sucking parasites!

There are steelhead in the holding area at the Natoma hatchery.

Nice, I need to check it out, but every time I'm there I'm in my fishing gear and they won't let you in like that.

Can anyone recommend a shuttle service on the lower A? Thanks.

Anyone been fishing for halfpounders or chrome? Even lampreys or squawfish? Anything?

The Kiene report is getting stale - latest is from 11/7.

Just heard from unsubstantiated source that a bunch of winter fish just came into the system this past week.
I'm working to get some confirmation. When I do I will post it on the AR page of californiafishingreports.com

I’ve spent a few day’s at river bend. No luck, cold feet, haven’t seen the few others fishing catch anything. Haven’t spotted any rolls ether. Probably check grist mill tomorrow.
Hope they don’t cut flows.

Stopped at the hatchery, loaded, though many of the big trout are pretty beat up. The volunteer said it’s good numbers at all the hatchery’s.

Spotted two sea lions at the 160 bridge. Good luck to fish coming up.

Fished Gristmill, nice area a lot of room, no hits, didn’t see any others catching either. 2000cfs is a good flow rate.
Kind of think the trout are just going straight through to Hazel Hatchery.
The upper river will be busy and foggy today. Have and keep it clean.
