The right stuff...

Everyday we head to the river fresh, rested and ready to throw our best stuff at the Sacramento River king salmon. The best proven plugs, top home cured roe, the best cut baits and combos available...all what we all think is the right stuff. 

Some days feast other days famine!  This is the time of year that the most salmon begin to show in the Sacramento River, late August and all of September...primetime!  When you salmon fish everyday, when large schools of salmon are coming through and you are there with the "right stuff" great things happen. 

This past weekend we experienced some pretty strange weather bringing strong thunder and lightning along with cooler temperatures and off and on rain showers. 

 I'd imagine that the day before this storm hit would be the reason we did so well salmon fishing on Saturday.  Sunday however,  a much different mood the salmon were in. We did manage several salmon on Sunday but Monday...day two of the rainy weather...the salmon had adjusted to this low pressure system and were on the chew!

As I said earlier,  showing up with the "right stuff" everyday really paid off when you put your customers in position for a phenomenal salmon fishing day on the Sacramento River. Seven passes…six large salmon hooked…fought and landed later...the kind of salmon fishing day we all show up for and hope that happens.

Finely tuned "old style" kwikfish with our special bait wrap combo was definitely the stuff the kings were into on this particular fishing day.
