Before you quite your day job and get a guide’s license, here’s a little behind the scenes look at the life & times of a fishing guide…
SKREEANT! SKREEANT! SKREEANT!
A series of horrific screeches pierce the silent evening. My heart rate’s suddenly gone from 0 to 100 mph in just under a nanosecond and I jolt upright, trying to figure out where the terrible sounds are coming from.

There just may be an inland salmon fishing season in California’s Central Valley this summer and fall. The California Fish & Game Commission is meeting via teleconference on Wednesday to decide…here are the proposals (keep in mind they may not do any of these):
Sacramento River
• Upper Sacramento, from Deschutes Road Bridge to Highway 113 Bridge: Oct. 2 to Oct. 24.
• Lower Sacramento, from Highway 113 Bridge to Carquinez Bridge: Sept. 4 to Oct. 3.
American River
• Open to Salmon Fishing downstream from Ancil Hoffman Park: Oct. 30 to Nov. 29.
Feather River
• Open to Salmon Fishing downstream from Thermalito Afterbay Outlet: July 31-Aug. 29
Here’s a MAP of the seasons from the Sacramento Bee.
The current proposals are calling for a 2-fish per day, 2 in possession limit.

Powers said he was fishing in 52 fathoms of water 7 miles straight off Bodega Head and the kings “bit like wild dogs.” [click to continue…]

There’s always a race to be the one to catch the first Chinook salmon of the year on the Columbia River…and, well, guys…hate to break it to ya, but you’re too late. This 16-pound hatchery king was taken Feb. 1 while trolling downstream with a green label cut-plug herring with Larry Kesch Jr. of Hook’Em Up Guide Service. [click to continue…]
