Sacramento River salmon report July 28, 2014 Dave Jacobs July 28, 2014 Sacramento River fishing reports Sacramento River salmon report July 28, 2014 The start of the second week of salmon fishing on the Sacramento River is starting to show signs of improvement as we are just a few days away from the upper river opener above The Red Bluff Diversion Dam on August 1st. Pictured here is Louis Hixson-Rivera with todays largest salmon of our boat limit, a 25 pound July Sacramento River king salmon. These salmon are fat and full of fight right now and fishing looks to be fantastic on the upper river opener. The Sacramento River will only get better from here on out as the most salmon to fish for are traditionally in the river August, September and October as reported by Sacramento River salmon fishing guide Dave Jacobs.
