The "Sac" (as locals fondly call the Sacramento River), stretches 384 miles
and drains a third of California's water. It has the distinction of the state
record King Salmon catch at 88 lbs.
Northern California Fishing Reports
The River Pirate brings you the most current Northern California
fishing reports,
the latest Sacramento River fishing reports,
and the latest Shasta Lake fishing reports.
Dyed-in-the-wool fishermen know if you want to catch fish, you go
where the fish are. What bit yesterday may not bite today. But general
trends do hold and fishing forecasts from Master Guides carry a lot
of weight.

Few basins rival the Sacramento Valley's fish biomass density. Its
rivers and streams are measured in thousands of fish per mile,
while its reservoirs are gauged in tons per square acre.
This is a fisherman's paradise.
If you're looking for a proven fishing guide who can put you on fish,
then come to Northern California and fish with Pro-Guide
Ken Hoffman on his powerful jet boat. Experience a guided fishing trip only a
Master Guide can provide.

Sacramento River Fishing Guide
The Sacramento River watershed's constantly changing water levels peak
and recede in annual cycles. This flux is both natural and man-made.
Knowledge and experience of these rhythms can mean the difference between a
productive fishing trip and a waste of valuable fishing time. Having someone
who can pinpoint the best time and place to fish is what makes guided fishing
so much more productive than spending your years on trial and error.
