The Sacramento River has been running at 60,000 cfs coming out of Shasta dam for a couple weeks, the flow's have come down to 40,000 cfs as of today. They will continue to drop them to 20,000 cfs bye the 18th. If you have fished this fishery with me you no how good the fishing can be at these flows and this time of year. We are coming into early spring. It's the magic time for the lower Sacramento River, if you haven't fished this body of water side drifting eggs with ultra light rods you are missing out on a great fishery, it's a action packed day of catching lots of 4 to 7 lb rainbows/steelhead!!  Come up to Redding jump in the boat and enjoy a beautiful day catching world class rainbows on the Sacramento River 
I still have dates available in February / first couple weeks of March!

I also will be fishing Browns on Shasta Lake, this is a great time of year to chase big brown trout on Shasta, 



We are first aid, CPR approved and USCG approved. We hold special use permit for the Six Rivers National Forest/Trinity National Forest also.

We are on the water over 260 days a year its what we do full time.
