It is a beautiful time to be on the water and fishing. The weather is comfortable, not too hot 70/80's and low 50"s in the mornings. The fish bite has been excellent this week. Fished Shasta Lake today, with my client Roger, and he caught an released over a dozen beautiful hard fighting Rainbow Trout in the 3 to 5 class. Fished Lake Sisikyou on Tuesday and Wednesday and the bite continues to be crazy good (30 fish days). We have been catching and mostly releasing a nice mix of Brown an Rainbow Trout in the 1.5 to 3.5 pound class. Give me a call 530 905 0758 or book online at Caldwellfishing.com
