Reports of better striper fishing have come in for Sacramento river striper guides who find the schools of striper's in and around the Colusa/ Grimes area of the Sacramento or Sac river. This past week started off slow early in the week and really heated up by Thursday, Friday and Saturday for Sacramento river striper guides. Big fish of the week for Dave Jacobs professional guide service was Andy Jones' 19 pound striper caught on a minnow while anchored in 12 foot of water on Saturday May 3rd. Best striper action has been spread out with most activity near Grimes/Tisdale area of the Sacramento river or Sac river. Some days reports of limits come in with a couple of days where Sacramento river striper guides are reporting working hard to bring in their limits of stripers. Sardine/anchovies cut bait fishing from anchor has worked as well as backbouncing minnows or pile worms producing nice stripers to 19 pounds. Trolling Rebel style lures in various color combos has also brought in nice striper's. Striper fishing should improve through May. Reports of good numbers of sturgeon have still come in with fish being found from Colusa downstream around the Tisdale area of the Sacramento or Sac river. Sacramento river sturgeon guides soaking pile worms, ghost shrimp or store bought eel from anchor have produced most sturgeon bites.
