Salmon fishing on the Feather river has slowed a bit despite better flows of 5100cfs near Gridley. Very few new fish have been moving upstream making for tougher fishing. Best fishing has been from Oroville to Gridley. Anglers casting large #6 Blue Fox spinners from the bank around the outlet have caught a few salmon to 30 lbs. Most fish have averaged 12 to 25 pounds. Backbouncing small K-14 to K-16 kwikfish in various color combos with a sardine wrap has been best bet for king salmon to 30 pounds. Feather river daily limits for salmon will increase to three salmon per day with only three salmon in possession on July 16th.
