Sacramento River Salmon

Grandson and I fished the Barge Hole on the Sacramento River yesterday and limited out. Going to smoke this catch.

Nice ! How far up river is the Barge hole?

 

[packerbacker]

It's where Battle Creek enters the Sacramento above Red Bluff. You take the Jelly's Ferry exit off I-5.

Yummy! That will be some good eating.

 

[old digger]

Very Nice! Are you permitted to catgh more on a different day, or two fish for the season?

 

[packerbacker]

2 per day Digger in the Sacramento River. Season runs into December. Varies from year to year. Different stretches of the river have different regs. You need to take your lawyer fishing with you.

 

[old digger]

So many reg's, it's ridiculous.

You realize that Yogi and Boo Boo are going to go hungry cause you got all the big fish. But screw em. You are so lucky to be able to do that. Around here there ain't much water to fish in and the word perch always comes to mind.

perch are one of my favorites to eat. Yellow perch that is. Out here in California they call bluegill perch. They may be from the perch family but they aren't yellow perch like back in Wisconsin. I like to eat bluegill also but yellow perch are better imo.
Hey Austin....any fish in that "Riverwalk"?
Heck, you can drive 150 miles and hit the ocean! Always got that goin' for ya.
