"Today was as good as it gets." Mike Rasmussen with SalmonSacRiver.com reports. Checking in from Yuba City, Ca today Rasmussen reported seeing several hundred striped bass get boated today by other NorCal guides and recreational anglers on the Feather River today. Fishing is limit out action and the grade of bass is a much better average then the Sacramento River has had this season so far. Rasmussen used mainly minnows today to catch his stripers and one white sturgeon of 53.5 inches caught by fishing guide Dave Jacobs, who was on board for their first apearance to the Feather River in several years. Trolling plugs such as P-Line preditors and slow rolling white swim baits also worked well for the linesides. The Northern California fishing guide also noted that the action was so solid that triple and quadruple hook ups were very common on a pass in a good hole while trolling live minnows down stream. All North State fishing guides were coming back to the launch with limits of linesides and smiling faces. 

The action on the Feather River by all acounts appears to look as though it should remain stable and consistantly good fishing in the week to come. I urge readers to not waist any time and book a trip with a local striper guide as fishing like this is not around every year. The action is absolutely lights out and extreemly fun for all anglers no matter age, or skill level. Mike Rasmussen owner of SalmonSacRiver.com has availabilities to take more groups on this amazing striper bite through afternoon guided fishing trips and through fishing guide John Pearl who has just started taking striped bass trips in the Sacramento Valley, depending on his tournament schedual for bass fishing here in California.
