That is a fat little guy. 

nice Bill!
we still have to set-up the salt trip we were kicking around, will it turn into Albion?

I'm hitting the salt either the 14th or 15th for sure.  Gotta get out there and try my luck.  Can you recommend where I should go.

I guess I better get in the game.
It's a start
13"

Looks like that guy made it to the frying pan! Too bad you started getting sick, I found a giant school of  14"-16" blacks in about 35-40ft. on the way back in. Caught 4 in a row on the purple haze clouser and moved on.

Either way those little shits were fun!

Nice job Marcos. If you don't mind my asking, where did you guys launch?

WTG Marcos, nice black!

small panfish caught off the SUP at the Port of Sac. today.
4wt, floating line, small green bead head wooly bugger
i'll gladly take 6" for the length(if accepted) as the mouth is open due to the fly being in it

Fished out of the kayak a couple days up north picked up the 18 1/4" trout at a little spot I know on Irongate Res. This guy was a bleeder so I kept him for the smoker. I landed a larger one but I didn't want to molest him with the water getting warmer and took my time reviving him. 2nd pic is of another large fish my cousin caught, closer to 20", they grow fast for obvious reasons, most I have found is 6 perch in one trout.

17 3/4" Shad was from yesterday on the sac, couldn't find one of the big 20"+ females that are not that uncommon. Bite didn't even start until 8:00, landed 7 in last hour of light, crappy shad year for me, that's probably my last outing for them.

No more tying on cheap F-ing All__ hooks when fishing for the big boys. We go to a place there is the possibility of hooking into a 10lb. trout in heavy fast water, first cast I set up the perfect dead drift and whammo, something slams fly, then it's gone, WTF?

Nice scores Golfish!
I am 0 fer 2 on the AR and don't think I am gonna get any shad love this year

whoa, that sucks about the hook, dont think i ever saw one break there before, cameron

Novo, screw shad and think stripers. Got a couple last weekend.

That was a well fed trout bro! Nice
Sucks about that hook...teach you to buy crap...lol
Well done

Dude, talked to some peeps when I was in Oregon, 50 steelies in the rogue hatchery already! Summer run looks early, probably on the NU too, thinking about a July run to swing some flies on they spey rod.
