From $150.00. The Sacramento River is one of the most scenic waterways in California. The river has world class trout fishing year round and some great seasonal salmon fishing. Seth offers a low stress environment for all expert levels. Both Spin Fishing & Fly Fishing trips are offered with all of the bait and gear provided. My river jet boat holds parties up to 4 people and drift boat arrangements can be made on a request basis. I clean & bag all of the fish for you once we hit the dock. My guide service offers fishing trips from Redding down to Chico. If you are looking to book a trip with a guide that can provide you with a great time on the water, you have come to the right place. Book with me and get the service and respect you deserve.

Fantastic

It takes a true mastery of something to be able to be able to teach expert techniques to beginner anglers. That is exactly what Seth was able to do. I have never fished a day in my life before, but I loved watching the movie a river runs through it so I figured I might as well hire a guide and see if I could catch a few salmon. The trip exceeded all expectations, he took my lack of experience in stride and showed me exactly what to do to catch a salmon. Throughout the day we caught 10 nice salmon, one of which topped 20 lbs! Not bad for someone who had never caught a fish before. I am now hooked on fishing and have even bought my own equipment. I highly recommend him for beginner anglers looking for a fantastic learning experience and a great day of fishing.

I have gone with Seth 2 times and have caught fish and have been happy both times. When I plan on going again I will definitely book with him. I have my own boat but too bog for the Sac near Chico don't catch as many fish anyway Ha-Ha K.C.
