For the fishing regulations, spots not specially mentioned in that guide follow broader statewide regulations based on the speciss. For trout in CA right now, that looks like with a few exceptions, you can fish all inland rivers with a five bag daily limit, two bag possession. Page 31 of the 2024-25 fishing regulation book 👍

Ive been watching you for a couple of years now back when i lived in California and youve taught me a lot. I moved to Kentucky 2 years ago and i went fishing here about a year ago and caught my first ever catfish. And thats honestly probably the first fish and only fish ive ever caught. I remember catching tiny fish when i was young and fishing with my dad but he was always helping me. This was the first fish i feel like i caught all on my own.

On the Sacramento river for trout I have really good luck with orange Thomas buoyancy spoons. I use like 2/5 but I have to go heavy for the current and how far out I have to cast. But in spots like that it doesn't need to be that big obviously. And what I do is a cast a little upstream, let it sink going down river, anticipate bottom, and give it little pops, that action as it flows down seems to be the most consistent for me. Something you should try also are float setups, specifically slip floats if more than 3-5ft of depth. This was you can get the lure right in their face. Can do this with jigs, flies, etc. Can add scent to them.

Hello Sir I am a new subscriber and I really enjoy your matter of fact way of doing things using common sense!! OK I am not a hardcore fisherman but as a boy growing up in the Mountains of NC I fished all the time using worm fly or spinner. Flys on top or 6-10 inch under water seemed best. BUT here is the thing you are not doing. You have to walk upstream and throw in the pool above you without being seen by the fish. An ole timer told me the fish watch the horizon line all around them. Anything crossing that line will scare the fish for 30 min sometimes. In the creeks you can see the fish scatter 200 feet away when you pop out on the shore. We would crawl to an edge behind a tree and put the pole out like a limb. When they don't see you its possible to catch many in the same hole. Try this!! you will be amazed.
@robertmartin71836 ай бұрын
Now, if you go to a stocked river where guides float and people are its different. Boats are better than standing on the bank But in remote places with narrow areas the fish are eaten alot more by other critters.

I go into the Sierras all the time and love exploring California's mountain river valleys and am always quite successful and If I can give you 1 piece of advice is this: Wear natural color clothes to blend in with either sky, rock, dirt, trees, plants... whatever your backdrop will be to the fish looking up at you and the 2nd part to this is keep a low profile and cast from "inactive" parts of the pools or runs INTO the active parts where the currents drop oxygen, food and offer proximal swimming depths. Avoid being seen... give them credit as this is their home and have to live being wary of predators... especially the larger older wiser ones. Good luck on your next outing into the beautiful Sierra Nevadas bro! 🏞🎣😊🔥
