Sacramento River Fishing Report June 14, 2020

Currently the Sacramento river is temming with thousands upon thousands of large American shad. The shad have been migrating up the Sacramento River in large schools since May and solid shad fishing action will continue well into July. Anglers fishing various sections of the Sacramento River from Red Bluff California downriver through Colusa California are finding solid fishing action. Side drifting from anchor small brightly colored jigs tipped with a small curly tailed grub is all it takes to entice one of these hard fighting shad to bite. Colors like chartruese, hot pink, flame orange or champangne are all that are needed as reported by Sacramento River fishing guide Dave Jacobs.

Jacobs reports “There is alot of excitement buiding as we approach the re opening of the Sacramento and Feather Rivers salmon fishing season! With the extended salmon season and increased daily salmon limit on the Feather River many are preparing for a solid salmon opener.”

The Sacramento River will open to salmon fishing on July 16th 150 feet below the Sycamore boat launch in Red Bluff California. The upper Sacramento River will officially open on August 1st from the Red Bluff Diversion Dam up to the Deschutes Bridge in Anderson California. Daily salmon limits are (2) two king salmon per person with a total possession limit of four salmon per person. Over on the Feather River, the salmon season will also open on July 16th with a (3) three salmon per person daily limit.
