LAKE OROVILLE: According to Jamey Sorensen of North Valley Tackle, fishing for spotted bass remains solid on finesse baits. Some fish are always on the shoreline, but many are holding at 25 to 40 feet. Craig Newton of Will Fish Tackle added that some anglers chasing landlocked kings are finding action, but it is far from red hot. A pair of his customers managed 3 fish to 20 inches during a recent outing.
THERMALITO AFTERBAY: According to Sorensen, this shallow impoundment is very cold, causing the largemouth here to be lethargic and hard to catch. Sorensen added that there have been a lot of duck hunters here as well.
FEATHER RIVER: Steelhead fishing is good wherever anglers can find access from the Outlet Hole down to Gridley. A few kings are being caught below the Live Oak Diversion Dam, where pressure remains light. Stripers are occasionally biting on the lower river.
SACRAMENTO RIVER, Red Bluff to Colusa: Low water is making launching jet boats difficult at many ramps. Trout fishing has improved below Red Bluff because of the low water. Salmon fishing remains slow.
SACRAMENTO RIVER, Verona to Colusa: Salmon fishing has been slow. Some anglers are hunting for trophy stripers.
TRINITY RIVER: Steelhead fishing is best from Junction City to Lewiston. Plugs and roe below bobbers is working in the low, clear water. Flows at Lewiston remain very low at 296 cfs, while flows at Junction City are 345 cfs. Expect more steelhead to move in from the Klamath after the next rain.
AMERICAN RIVER: Steelhead season opens Jan. 1 above Ancil Hoffman Park. A few half-pounders are being caught in the area open downstream. Salmon fishing is slow.
LAKE SHASTA: John Boitano of Phil’s Propeller said it’s big bait time at the lake. The bass are chomping in a race with Old Man Winter. Big swimbaits such as Hudds and Ospreys are producing big bites. S-Wavers and glide baits are also drawing strikes, as is the A-rig. If there’s wind ruffling the water, try crankbaits and blades, and there’s also a bit of a ripbait bite then. Finesse plastics will work of course. Trout fishing is excellent, the fish are in the top 20 feet, and biting for trollers and shore casters. Flies are working best down at the dam, as are wooly buggers. Optimizers are a trout trolling mainstay here.
