October I began fishing the Klamath river and everyday since has been filled with fish, fun and Smiles. The Klamath has blessed me with 56 days in row of beautiful fish catching and releasing action. November Steel finish very strong with some beautiful fish and perhaps the last of cold crisp beautiful fall weather.

December has started, and winter has begun as well with some cold, rainy, an some light snow high up, but that hasn't hindered the bite. My clients Vern an Pete killed it the first two days of December and landed some real beauties. 

Day 57 will begin soon (I hope , haha) as I take my daughter Katie out on the river for first time in a very long time. 

I am working the river everyday until I am no longer able too.  The soon to occur January draw down of Ironagte reservoir and removal means my days are numbered and my steady eddy always fishable Klamath River, will become a big unknown. What I do know is the river flow will rise sometime in January and whether it will be fishable is unknown.

Until that occurs, I am enjoying each and everyday!

I have 10 days available in December, so if you'd like an opportunity to fish the Klamath in 2023, now is the time to book it.

December 14, 15, 16, 21,22, 23, 24, 26, 29, 30 are the last days of 2023 I have open.

Checkout the pics and enjoy, then give me a call 530 905 0758 or simply book online at Caldwellfishing.com 

 I will continue to fish the lakes in 2024, McCloud, Lake Siskiyou, Shasta and Whiskeytown. I have gift certificates available they make great stocking stuffer gifts for family or loved ones.
