The upper Sacramento River August 1st opener went well in the canyon near Bend California as well as the Barge Hole opener below Battle Creek near Cottonwood California. Many guides and recreational anglers gave the opener a try and some were not disappointed. The SalmonSacRiver.com guide boat limited everybody aboard that morning with 10 adult king salmon landed. Some of sacramentofishing.com clients chartered down in the canyon of the Sacramento River and reported 7 adult king salmon landed that morning. All in all both the July 16th opener and the August 1st openers were much better this season than years past.
