Dang it! I can't make it this Saturday. Anybody plan on fishing Sunday? Do you guys know a good place to launch at Freeport?

Never fished on the American or Sacramento so I have no insight. Would the current and rocky bottom cause any issues for a Hobie PA?

There are some shallow spots, trees and current. Diligence and a paddle will put you in superstar mode on the river :smt005 :smt006

Much appreciate someone hanging back like that.  I'll be there super early and be bringing some bratwurst and beer. 
Three-fourths of the Earth's surface is water, and one-fourth is land. It is quite clear that the good Lord intended us to spend triple the amount of time fishing as taking care of the lawn.

Just dropped a shit ton on a new reel and tackle.. so I guess I'm committed!  How realistic is it to anchor in the American?  I'm a bit paranoid about dropping an anchor in current and I have no clue what the AR is like this time of year.

I picked up some Blue Fox spinners and some Silvertrons in blue and green colors as well as some jigs for mooching.  3 or 4 ounce weights sound right?  Its gonna be a miracle if I actually land a fish.

It's very doable to anchor brody. It's not as fast as u think..some spots are, but most are deep mild to slow current cause of the depth. U just have to try to make sure your anchor line is directly behind your boat for best positioning..this part of the River is easy.  1-2oz higs are ideal. 12-15lb. Test on a good light casting outfit is all u need. Great to hear your coming. See ya there
