The Sacramento River fishing has been heating up this past week with several species of fish to target here in June. With the salmon opener just a little more than a month away, anglers have headed out on the Sacramento River for trout, American shad and stripers. The spring striper run has been winding down but their are several small groups of stripers still in the Sacramento River near Colusa California. The wild rainbow trout bite has been solid up in downtown Redding with many trout being caught and released below the Highway 44 bridge in downtown. Side drifting small egg imitations have worked best for these hard charging bows’. The American shad run is in full stride as thousands of American shad have ascended on the upper Sacramento River from Colusa to Red Bluff California for their annual spawn. These hard fighting fish can be found in large schools and will be in catchable numbers through mid July. Early in the mornings and late in the evenings are top times to go after these shad in the one to three pound class. Side drifting small brightly colored jigs tipped with a curly tailed grub through shad schools is all it takes to entice the bite. Launches out of Colusa, Chico, Hamilton City and Red Bluff have been good locations for shad fishermen and women. Salmon enthusiast will be out in full force come July 16, 2018 which marks the official opening of the Sacramento River salmon fishing season as reported by Sacramento River fishing guide Dave Jacobs.
