Today we targeted King Salmon and Rainbow trout and action was pretty consistent all day .We landed around 15 king salmon and caught some really nice rainbows .Most of are fish were caught in 35 ti 60 ft water  using shad pattern lures .Coving slot of water is the ticket for numbers but the mouth of the Sacramento arm was the best place for the most action .Are biggest fish today was a 6pound king salmon .Call (530)515-5951 for openings remember I've been in buisness since 1988 full time  longest guide on Shasta lake .
