Steelies

I just spoke with a friend who was out on the American a few days ago and witnessed a lot of fish moving up the river. As we all suspected the rain has really set things off and we are expecting a good opener. My car blew a head so I will be stuck for a week or so with no fishing, but Brian will be out on the opener and I am expecting results. Hopefully we'll have some pics for you after the 1st!

Rain!!!

It was getting ready to rain when I left Sacramento yesterday afternoon to visit friends in Cloverdale, Ca. This morning I woke up to the patter of rain drops on soil outside. Went out to the river and it was already swollen and dirty. I think another push of fish should be on the way soon...

Float trip!!

Tomorrow I am making my first float trip on the American and I am stoked! Brought the pontoon out and getting ready to hit it up with a friend of mine. This will be a great opportunity to explore some new water and learn about the river, not to mention catch some chromers! Expect updates soon...

December Update

Hi folks!
Its been a while... finding a job has been a bit of a struggle. Maybe I should have stayed in Idaho!!! Oh well, on the bright side the half pounder action has been decent on the Lower American River which is only about ten minutes from my place in Midtown Sac. Made a visit to the fish hatchery last week up on Hazel Ave. and observed some beastly chromers in the ladder. Fish are here, just not too many yet. Man could we use some rain!!!!
