    Default Feather river

    Went out on the Feather River with guide Tony Buzolich This morning great guy I would highly recomend him . Talking to him he has a great back ground in Flyfishing (30 years) . Tony is as personable as they come. Thanks Bill for pointing out this one!

    Salmon are not quite on the reds yet so steelhead was slow.

    Had some salmon take some flies thrown for steelhead. This was our first salmon on a fly rod wow!!! \/ \/ bicep burning fun

    Rich with Tony B.


    Nice Healthy hen


    My first salmon


    Steelhead are fun but this was awsome!!!

    Incase anyone is interested Tonys' E-mail is buzolove@sbcglobal.net

    Thanks Tony for a momery filled trip We'll be booking again soon

    Default Great Day

    Really glad you guys had a good time. I did too.

    As I said, I think the fall run is very late and there are still a bunch of fresh fish yet to come in. Probably about the time the American gets going the Feather will also.

    Once these "steelhead" start setting up redds, and new fish keep adding to the existing population, the real steelies will be here in full force. Then it'll be glow-bug time for the rest of the winter.

    Again, glad you had a great day,
    TONY

    Hey guys,.... After fishin' with Tony, I can, enthusiastically, second that he is a great guy and guide.

    I still owe him some flies to replace those I lost on our last trip....

    Darian,
    You owe Tony one less fly, one of the salmon had a chartruse fly with dumbell eyes stuck in it's shoulder. He told us it was yours from the day before.

    Hi Tony,

    Our King Salmon run on the Lower American River peaks over a month after the Feather's.

    October and even into November is our run here in Sacramento.

    It is probably about 25% as many fish though as the Feather but can be very good with the cooler weather.

    A favorite place is the run just below the Goethe Park bridge.
