The Sacramento River has salmon from top to bottom.  Unfortunately, its feast or famine depending on where you fish on any given day.  Today we had three boats on the river and 5 Kings made it to the net.  We just need more fish in the system before we start to see consistent limits of salmon, although Capt. Justin has pulled some limits already this season for clients.  We'll keep at it and when they finally come in bigger pods and start holding, we'll be there!
