Fishing for wild rainbow trout on the lower Sacramento or Sac River from Redding downstream below Anderson, Ca. has been good with multiple hook-ups for Sacramento river trout guides both on conventional spin and fly gear. River releases from Keswick dam near Redding have fluctuated this past week but have stabilized at 10,000 cfs. Very good trout fishing is being reported for Sacramento river trout guides from Redding downstream to Red Bluff, Ca. Trout fishing should really improve with the increased flows in late May and June for wild rainbow trout 1 to 3 pounds with the occasional big trout of 4 plus pounds. Boats cannot pass the Cypress bridge construction in Redding from 7,000cfs and up. Side drifting small glo bugs in various egg color combo's and/or live cricket or crawler's with a Quickie puffball have worked well for Sacramento river trout fishing guides. Back trolling small Hot shots 50's or small K-4/K-5 Kwikfish in various color combos can also be very effective for Sacramento river trout guides. Angler's can call ahead for current river condition's as condition's can change quickly on the Sacramento or sac river. American shad are starting to show in the upper reaches of the Sacramento river below Red Bluff, Ca. with better scores of shad in late May and June in this area.
