Big salmon loading up in the Sacramento River!

The 2021 fall salmon run on the lower Sacramento River is building everyday with many above average king salmon being landed daily. Professional guides and private boaters alike are putting their salmon fishing skills to work with great results. "I have seen more salmon early and often this year so far with more salmon over 20 pounds than I've seen in years" reports Sacramento River salmon fishing guide Dave Jacobs.  

Catching several large king salmon over 20 pounds is likely so far this season and some lucky anglers with Dave Jacobs Professional Guide Service have landed massive kings 29 and 31 pounds recently!  "Just today we had two salmon weigh in at 24 and 28 pounds" reports Jacobs. 

This season the peak of the run is building now with tremendous salmon fishing just around the corner! You can count on all of September and early October being prime time.  The Boondoglers are doing fantastic right now dragging bait or beads downriver as these salmon "blast" through the Sacramento River in search of clean cold water before the spawn. Anglers are scoring on these king salmon "river wide" on light tackle from Anderson Balls Ferry downriver to the Knights Landing Bridge. Occasionally some of the largest king salmon grab ahold of a "old style" kwikfish plug back bounced through some prime salmon holding waters on the Sacramento River. 

If catching one of these huge Sacramento River king salmon interests you, come join the Sacramento Rivers most celebrated fishing guide charter, Dave Jacobs Professional Guide Service....we have been perfecting Sacramento River salmon fishing since 1985!
