Mike,
We can’t Thank You enough for the awesome time we had. You went above and beyond what we expected to build memories of a lifetime that we will never forget. I would highly recommend you to anyone who wants to catch fish. My kids are so jealous, especially when I showed them all the pictures.
Let me know if there is a way I can post on your web page.., I can’t figure out what I’m doing wrong..
Thank Again for the best time ever, we had so much fun..
Ken and Sharon

American River seems to have a good salmon run going right now with new fish coming in. Client Craig Costa, hooked multiple salmon bouncing roe with his fly rod. Weather perfect, had a GREAT time! Hooking limits everyday!

Been hunting Shad for the last two weeks. Still the same, spotty. Will keep trying. As of June 13 steelhead fishing is still good, despite the high water. Cold water and high flows are keeping the steelhead fishing good all year. Flies are not working but the WORMS are. June 11 saw my first chrome salmon moving up. Hopefully this year we will have a good salmon run.

In the last week the fishing has been epic on the American River!
My partner & I, Ken have combed the beautiful river up & down. The flow, the color, the steelies have been perfect. 3 days ago I got my first visual of stripers. Friday ended up catching three 5 pound and six 3 pound steelhead. The bluebacks have arrived.

The American River was running @9000 and was OFF THE HOOK!!
Started out at Rossmor and drifted to Gristmill approx 6-7 miles for 3 smolts early in the morning. After a short move to the next drift about a a mile down, we sealed the deal on 2 more 3 pounders. We continued our drift to Sara Court where we landed a beautiful 7 pound vicious steelhead!
Moved down river another mile near River Bend Park Bridge and picked up another 6lb steelhead under the bridge.
As you can see from the pictures below, my buddy Ken ate the 6lber later that evening.

Mike’s Mystery Spot.
Went up river behind the house one evening in the summer. We threw in some live bait and within 1 hour my girlfriend thought she was snagged. It turned out to be a beautiful 32 lb striper!
Shad fishing on the American River can be some of the most action packed days. These fish fight incredibility well for the size. Give me a call and book a trip now!
Very nice Salmon caught on the American River during our short 2010 season.
Went out despite the high water. Landed into a school of 3-5 lb Steelies. Didn’t get anything on roe or plugs, but good ‘ol shrimp injected worms got us some action. Sorry, no pics this time.
