Some of the best fishing in no cal is on the American riverthat runs from Tahoe to downtown Sac. There is always something runnig up the river. Right now is the tail end of Shad, Some Strippers are starting to show, you can catch Salmon right now ( but only till end of june salmon season closes july 1 ) after salmon come steelhead up to 20lbs and this will take you up to the end of feb early march if lucky, where it starts all over again with the Shad run

Not sure what species your lookin' at but, if it be in Northern CA., I fish both the Trinity & Sacto rivers out of Redding for Salmon & Steelhead (in fact headin' up there in a few months) and let me tell ya' their both great bodies of water for fishin'. Unfortunately CA., OR. and WA., are experiencin' big problems with Salmon runs and the Sacto will be closed for where we fish them... So basically, looks like we'll be concentratin' on the Trinity this year. As for good fishin' rivers the Trinity be tops on our list ! It supports not only Steelies and Kings but, Smallmouth Bass along with Brown and Rainbow trout as well. All time personal best for myself in the state be the Mattole River outta' Petrolia (south of Eureka). There's also the Klamath, Mad and Van Duzen rivers that are great producers. Haven't fished the Sacto where you might be but, use ta' do the American. It's been awhile though mainly because it just got to over populated/fished through the years... Hope I've helped but, if I didn't ~ sure as H _ _ l know for a fact that I got ya' readin' what with all the ramblin' I did !!! "Tight lines" to ya' and "Fish On" ... < ' ( (( > <
