FISHING REPORT
2024 Striped Bass
What a season it was! High water on the Sacramento River allowed us to be very blessed. There did come some adversities, however we were able to over come them. We saw days of boat limits by 8:30am and some days we had to work for them. Most of the fish caught were schoolies (18-25"), however late April in to May we were able to get some 10-20lb hens in the net! Over all, the fishing was amazing! Cannot wait until 2025 season.
2024 Kokanee
All I can say is limits were the rule. Bullards Bar blessed us on every trip. The high water in the reservoir allows the Kokanee to be able to get a good food source. Each trip we were able to get a 12" fish average with a lot of 13"+ mixed in.
