2020 Sacramento salmon report Dave Jacobs August 9, 2020 Trophy Fish 2020 Sacramento salmon report by Sacramento River salmon fishing guide Dave Jacobs. video courtesy of Dave Jacobs Professional Guide Service (530)646-9110 “old style” sardine wrapped kwikfish are all it takes to entice a Sacramento River king salmon to strikeBig salmon are moving upriver into the Sacramento River this week! These salmon have been very active putting up incredible fights as you can see from this recent video shot with Dave Jacobs Professional Guide Service on Saturday August 8, 2020. sacramentofishing.com Dave Jacobs Professional Guide Service has recently put into service our second 22 foot guide model Koffler jet boat with guide Ryan Tripp at the helm. Ryan has everything you need to put big Sacramento RIver king salmon in the box! Big salmon showing in the Sacramento River! This week marks the end of the third week since the opening of the Sacramento River to salmon fishing on July 16, 2020. There are more salmon showing in the upper Sacramento River above Colusa California than any other week so far. The salmon run on the Sacramento River traditionally continues to build through August with peak salmon fishing usually near the end of August, all of September and the first part of October. This season looks to be right on time with a large increase of big, hard fighting king salmon making their pressence known this past week. We are seeing rolling king salmon everywhere that we fish this past week throughout the day. The bite has been off and on this week but if you try a few different techniques and find some quiet water great things happen. With the help from guides Steve Lowery, Ryan Tripp and Dave Jacobs we have agian been able to send more families home with fresh king salmon recently. THIS WEEK WE HAVE SEEN A HALF DOZEN or so techniques on the Sacramento River from power drifting, downriver trolling, jigging, dragging, drifting, back bouncing plugs, back bouncing roe, hanging roe and bobbeer dogging and flat linning just to name a few. I would have to say from what we have been seeing out there that the top three techniques to catch Sacramento River salmon have been back bouncing sardine wrapped “old style” kwikfish lures, back bouncing home cured salmon roe and drifting roe/puffball combos on light spin gear. All three of these techniques are working everyday on the Sacramento River hear in August and I am pretty confident that when the main vien of the Sacramento River salmon run arrives later this month there should be daily success!
