Trout fishing on the Sacramento river near Redding was very good this past week for wild rainbow trout. Multiple hook-ups were common with many double, even triple hook-ups side drifting glo bugs. Current releases from Keswick into the Sacramento River have risen to 12,500cfs, perfect for drift boating or jet boating. Side drifting small hand tied glo-bugs in various egg color patterns proved best early in the mornings. Natural cured roe tipped with a Quickie puffball also scored some great fishing for wild bows'. Most trout averaged 1 to 3 pounds with the occasional large bow 4 to 5 pounds. 25 hook-ups are average with better scores of 40 plus hook-ups possible on good days. Redding to Red Bluff has been most productive water. Angler's back trolling small Hot shot #50's in various color combos has also been a good bet. Shad fishing has really improved in the upper reaches of the Sacramento river from Red Bluff to Chico with better fishing downstream near Chico. Angler's drifting jigs have scored 30 to 40 hook-ups on shad averaging 1 to 3 pounds. Side drifting small 1/16 to 1/32 ounce jigs with small one inch curly tailed grubs have been best. Shad fishing will continue to build now thru early July up river towards Red Bluff, Ca.

Professional guide service will be guiding trout/shad combo trips thru July 2007.
